Pak Chong, Administrative district in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand.

Pak Chong district spans 1,825 square kilometers across the Dong Phaya Yen Mountains, featuring diverse landscapes from agricultural fields to forested areas at 331 meters elevation.

The district emerged from a small village near dense jungle, gaining administrative status after the Northeastern Railway construction in 1898 enabled access through mountain passages.

The local markets display regional specialties from Thai, Issan, and Khmer influences, while dairy farms produce traditional milk products throughout the district.

Transportation infrastructure includes the Mittraphap Road connecting Bangkok to Isan and multiple railway stations serving the Northeastern Line for regional travel.

The district leads Thailand's dairy production while serving as the primary gateway to Isan region, with Khao Yai National Park occupying its southern section.
