History
Khlong Sam Wa was established as a district on 21 November 1997 by splitting from Min Buri. Khlong Sam Wa was the name of an amphoe (district) in Min Buri and hence the name is used as the district name. In 1947 when the area was still rural, the farming community of Bang Chan was chosen as a centre for Thai studies.
The name "Khlong Sam Wa" literally means "a khlong (canal) with a width of three wa" (about 5.94 m (19.5 ft). The name comes from a legal classification issued during the reign of King Rama V in 1891. At that time, any canal with a width of three wa or more was officially referred to as "Khlong Sam Wa." This legal designation later became the origin of the district's name.
