History
The district was created in 1993, when the eastern part of Phaya Thai was split off to form a new district. The district is highly populated partly due to the concentration of apartments built by National Housing Authority. They are along Din Daeng and Pracha Songkhro Roads.
Its name literally means "red soil." The name comes from a dirt road of the same name that was constructed during the government of Field Marshal P. Pibulsongkram in the 1940s, which had a distinct red colour. Locals soon began using the term Din Daeng to refer to the area. Today, it is better known as Din Daeng Road.
