Khao Suan Kwang (Thai: เขาสวนกวาง, in Thai pronounced as /kʰǎw sǔa̯n kwāːŋ/) is a district (amphoe) of Khon Kaen province, northeastern Thailand.
The minor district (king amphoe) Khao Suan Kwang was established in 1978 by splitting it from Nam Phong district. It was upgraded to a full district on 16 March 1985.[1] [2]
Neighboring districts are (from the south clockwise): Nam Phong and Ubolratana of Khon Kaen Province; Non Sang of Nong Bua Lamphu province; Nong Wua So, Nong Saeng, and Non Sa-at of Udon Thani province.
