Sida (Thai: สีดา, pronounced [sǐː.dāː]) is a district (amphoe) in the northeastern part of Nakhon Ratchasima province, northeastern Thailand.
History
[edit | edit source]The area of Sida was separated from Bua Yai district and made a minor district on 1 July 1997.[1] On 15 May 2007, all 81 minor districts were upgraded to full districts.[2] On 24 August the upgrade became official.[3]
