Krathum Baen, Administrative district in Samut Sakhon, Thailand.
Krathum Baen is an administrative district in northern Samut Sakhon that encompasses both rural and semi-urban areas connected by canal systems and local roads. The territory includes numerous villages and two urban municipalities that serve as local centers for residents and commerce.
The district was established in 1900 and expanded in 1926 through the integration of administrative subdivisions from a neighboring area. This territorial adjustment shaped the modern boundaries and layout of the area.
The district maintains a structured administrative system with ten tambons divided into 76 villages, reflecting traditional Thai local governance patterns.
The area is organized through several local administrative levels that serve different communities across the district. Visitors will encounter a mix of rural and urban infrastructure depending on which parts they explore.
Brother & Jan Coffee Roastery in Krathum Baen produces Ia-Sae-Kaffee, a five-star OTOP product made from selected northern and southern Thai coffee plantations.
