History In the past, Mueang District was called Bang Pho Tah It. It grew rapidly due to its harbor. King Rama V ordered the capital moved from Phi Chai District to Muang District. Next, in the reign of King Rama VI, the king ordered the incorporation of Mueang District into Uttaradit Province. Climate Uttaradit used to hold the record for the highest temperature ever recorded in Thailand: 44.5 °C (112.1 °F) observed at Uttaradit on 27 April 1960.[2] This was broken when temperatures in Mae Hong Son reached 44.6 °C (112.3 °F) on 28 April 2016.[3] Uttaradit has a tropical savanna climate (Köppen climate classification Aw).
