Don Chan (Thai: ดอนจาน, pronounced [dɔ̄ːn t͡ɕāːn]) is a district (amphoe) of Kalasin province, northeastern Thailand.
Geography
Neighbouring districts are (from the south clockwise): Kamalasai, Mueang Kalasin, Na Mon, and Kuchinarai of Kalasin Province, and Pho Chai of Roi Et province.
History
The minor district (king amphoe) was created on 15 July 1996, when it was split off from Mueang Kalasin district.[1]
