FANG OVERVIEW
Fang is a district in the northern part of Chiang Mai Province, northern Thailand. According to the Yonok chronicle, Mueang Fang was built in 641 by King Lawa Changkarat. Later King Mengrai the Great reigned Fang before building Wiang Kumkam and Chiang Mai of Lanna Kingdom.
The landscape of Mueang Fang looked like the seed of a Fang tree (Caesalalpinia sappan). Thus the town was named after the tree.
