About





Huai Khwang (Thai: ห้วยขวาง; IPA: [hûaj kʰwǎːŋ]) is one of the 50 districts (khet) of Bangkok, Thailand. It is east of the city centre. Neighbouring districts are Chatuchak, Wang Thonglang, Bang Kapi, Suan Luang, Watthana, Ratchathewi, and Din Daeng.























History





The Huai Khwang District was established from an area formerly part of Phaya Thai in 1973. Adjustments to the district were made in 1978, adjusting boundaries with neighboring districts Phaya Thai and Bang Kapi, and again in 1993, creating the new Din Daeng District.

The name "Huai Khwang" meaning "creek barricade" (huai in Thai means 'creek' and khwang means 'barricade'). Because the terrain here in the past consisted of wetlands and creeks, waterways were the main means of transport.

Today, the district has attracted a new generation of Chinese, leading it to be called "New Chinatown", as distinct from Bangkok's traditional Chinatown, Yaowarat, in Samphanthawong District.
