Khao Yoi (Thai: เขาย้อย, pronounced [kʰǎwjɔ́ːj]) is a district (amphoe) in the northern part of Phetchaburi province, western Thailand.

History

The district was established in 1897 and Luang Phromsan (หลวงพรหมสาร) was assigned as the first district officer. At first named Huai Luang, the district was renamed Khao Yoi in 1903 due to the site of the district office.[1] The name of the district comes from the limestone hill called Khao Yoi which is just off Phetkasem highway. The hill contains three caves, one of which has been converted to a cave temple with a notable reclining Buddha.

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Pak Tho of Ratchaburi province, Amphawa of Samut Songkhram province, Ban Laem, Mueang Phetchaburi, Ban Lat, and Nong Ya Plong of Phetchaburi Province.

Administration

The district is divided into 10 sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 59 villages (mubans). The sub-district municipality (thesaban tambon) Khao Yoi covers parts of tambons Khao Yoi, Sa Phang, Bang Khem, and Thap Khang. There are a further seven tambon administrative organizations (TAO) responsible for the non-municipal area.
