Contents

Dan Chang was created as a minor district (King Amphoe) on August 30th, 1974 by splitting off the three tambon Dan Chang, Ong Phra and Huai Khamin from Doem Bang Nang Buat district.[1] The minor district was officially upgraded to a full district on July 13th, 1981.[2]

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Ban Rai of Uthai Thani Province, Noen Kham of Chainat Province, Doem Bang Nang Buat and Nong Ya Sai of Suphanburi Province, and Lao Khwan, Nong Prue and Si Sawat of Kanchanaburi Province.

The Phu Toei National Park is located in Dan Chang district. The important water resource of Dan Chang is the Kra Siao river.

The district is subdivided into 7 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 93 villages (muban). The township (thesaban tambon) Dan Chang covers parts of the tambon Dan Chang and Nong Makha Mong. There are further 7 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
