Khlong San (Thai: คลองสาน) is one of the 50 districts (Khet) of Bangkok, Thailand. Located on the west bank of Chao Phraya River, neighboring districts across the river are (from north clockwise) Phra Nakhon, Samphanthawong, Bang Rak, Sathon, and Bang Kho Laem. On the other side, its only land neighbor is Thon Buri.

Khlong San was once called, in chronological order, Amphoe Bang Lamphu Lang (บางลำภูล่าง), Amphoe Buppharam (บุปผาราม), and Amphoe Khlong San (since 1916) when it was part of Thon Buri province. Its status was changed to King Amphoe in 1938 and back to Amphoe again in 1957 due to population changes. It became part of Bangkok after the merging of Thon Buri and Phra Nakhon provinces in 1971.
