Tham Phannara (Thai: ถ้ำพรรณรา, pronounced [tʰâm pʰān.nā.rāː]) is a district (amphoe) of Nakhon Si Thammarat province, southern Thailand.
Neighboring districts are (from the east clockwise): Chawang and Thung Yai of Nakhon Si Thammarat, and Phrasaeng and Wiang SaofSurat Thani province.
The district was created as a minor district (king amphoe) on 1 April 1990, when the two tambons Tham Phannara and Khlong Se were split off from Chawang district.[1] A first temporary district office was within Wat Tham Phannara, until the current office building was opened on 4 October 1993. On 7 September 1995 the minor district was upgraded to a full district.[2]
Tham Phannara is subdivided into three subdistricts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 29 administrative villages (mubans).
