History


Originally, Lak Song was a part of amphoe (district) Nong Khaem, a westernmost of Bangkok. Until 1998, the Ministry of Interior has merged certain areas of Nong Khaem and Phasi Charoen with Bang Khae, which is a newly established district. Since then Lak Song therefore became part of Bang Khae completely.

Its name "Lak Song" meaning "the second milestone", refers to the second milestone of Khlong Phasi Charoen, a canal that flows through the area. It is a canal dug during King Mongkut (Rama IV)'s reign linking Bangkok to Krathum Baen of Samut Sakhon province.[2]

In the nearby area there is a temple named Wat Lak Sam (วัดหลักสาม, "three milestone temple").[3]
