Mueang Kanchanaburi, Administrative district in Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand
Mueang Kanchanaburi encompasses thirteen sub-districts and ninety-nine villages at the confluence of Khwae Noi and Khwae Yai Rivers, forming Mae Klong River.
The district office relocated from Tambon Ban Nuea to Tambon Pak Phraek in 1954, marking a significant administrative transformation in the region's development.
The district maintains multiple township areas including Kaeng Sian, Nong Bua, and Talat Ya, each preserving traditional Thai community structures and local governance.
The district functions as the capital region of Kanchanaburi province, containing essential administrative facilities and transportation connections to neighboring regions.
The district contains Phu Nam Ron, a border crossing point that positions the region for future economic growth through potential trade with Myanmar.
