อำเภอศรีราชา
Si Racha[1] (Thai: ศรีราชา, pronounced [sǐː rāː.t͡ɕʰāː]) is a district in Chonburi Province, Thailand. Its center is the town of Si Racha, on the Gulf of Thailand, about halfway between Chonburi and Pattaya.
Si Racha is in an industrial zone consisting of manufacturing and shipping industries, supported by the port of Laem Chabang, 20th largest in the world. With Chonburi to the north and Pattaya, Bang Lamung township, Laem Chabang to the south, it forms the bulk of the economic zone of the eastern seaboard of Thailand, a fast-growing area that is second to only greater Bangkok in population and wealth.[citation needed] Due to its infrastructure, Laem Chabang and the eastern seaboard in general, is the nation’s leading entrepôt.[2]
The name “Si Racha” is from Sanskrit Sri Raja via Pali.
