Ta Phraya

Ta Phraya (Thai: ตาพระยา) is the most  northeastern district (Amphoe) of Sa Kaeo Province, eastern Thailand.

History

The area was originally dense forest in Aranyaprathet District. Later people moved  there for agricultural work. When the community grew bigger, the government created Ta Phraya minor district (king Amphoe) in 1959. It was upgraded to a full district in 1963.

This district gives its name to Ta Phraya National Park.
