History


The minor district (king amphoe) was created on 10 February 1967, consisting of the two tambon, Mae La Noi and Mae La Luang.[1] It was made a subordinate of Mae Sariang District, from which the tambon Mae La Noi was split off. Mae La Luang originally belonged to Khun Yuam District.[2] It was officially upgraded to a full district on 21 August 1975.[3]
