History

The minor district (king amphoe) was created on 1 April 1991, when three tambon were split off from Nakhon Chai Si district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on 5 December 1996.[2]

Buildings

The most important building in the district is the Phutthamonthon park, a 40 hectare Buddhist park. The district was named after the park.

One of the three campuses of Mahidol University is also in Salaya.

Administration

The district is divided into three subdistricts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 18 villages (mubans). Salaya has township (thesaban tambon) status and covers parts of tambon Salaya. Each of the tambon is administered by a tambon administrative organization (TAO).
