Mueang Nonthaburi

Mueang Nonthaburi extends across 77 square kilometers along the Chao Phraya River, containing ten administrative sub-districts with a population exceeding 348,000 residents.

The district evolved from its original name Talat Khwan, gaining importance after the provincial administration relocated there in 1917, leading to its current designation.

The district holds numerous Buddhist temples throughout its ten sub-districts, where local parakeet populations nest in the ancient trees surrounding these religious structures.

The district connects to Bangkok through multiple transportation options, including the MRT Purple Line, Chao Phraya Express Boat services, and regular bus routes.

The Department of Corrections maintains its national headquarters in the Suan Yai sub-district, while the area produces premium Durian Non fruit varieties.
