Wang Chan (Thai: วังจันทร์) is a district (Amphoe) in the northern part of Rayong Province, eastern Thailand.

Contents

The minor district (King Amphoe) Wang Chan was created on 16 November 1977 by splitting off the two tambon Chum Saeng and Wang Chan from Klaeng district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on July 19 1991.[2]

Neighboring districts are (from the east clockwise) Khao Chamao, Klaeng, Mueang Rayong, Ban Khai and Pluak Daeng of Rayong Province, and Nong Yai and Bo Thong of Chonburi Province.

The district is subdivided into 4 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 30 villages (muban). Chum Saeng is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Chum Saeng and Phlong Ta Iam. There are further 4 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
