Bang Ban (in Thai pronounced as /bāːŋ bāːn/) is a district (amphoe) of Ayutthaya province, in central Thailand.
The district was originally created in 1894 as Sena Nai District, with its district office in Sai Noi Sub-district. Later Mr Khiao Bangban (นายเขียว บางบาล) donated a piece of land for the building of the new district office in Bang Ban Sub-district. So the government agreed to change the district name to the donor's family name, which became effective in 1917.[1]
Neighbouring districts are (from the north clockwise) Pa Mok of Ang Thong province, Bang Pahan, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Bang Sai, Sena and Phak Hai of Ayutthaya Province.
The district Bang Ban is divided into 16 sub-districts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 111 administrative villages (Muban).
