**Lak Song** ([Thai](/source/Thai_language): หลักสอง, pronounced [\[làk sɔ̌ːŋ\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/Thai)) is a *[khwaeng](/source/Khwaeng)* (subdistrict) of [Bang Khae](/source/Bang_Khae) district, [Bangkok](/source/Bangkok)'s [Thonburi](/source/Thonburi) side.

## History

Originally, Lak Song was a part of *[amphoe](/source/Amphoe)* (district) [Nong Khaem](/source/Nong_Khaem_District), a westernmost of Bangkok. Until 1998, the [Ministry of Interior](/source/Ministry_of_Interior_(Thailand)) has merged certain areas of Nong Khaem and [Phasi Charoen](/source/Phasi_Charoen) with Bang Khae, which is a newly established district. Since then Lak Song therefore became part of Bang Khae completely.

Its name "Lak Song" meaning "the second [milestone](/source/Milestone)", refers to the second milestone of [Khlong Phasi Charoen](/source/Khlong_Phasi_Charoen), a [canal](/source/Khlong) that flows through the area. It is a canal dug during King [Mongkut](/source/Mongkut) (Rama IV)'s reign linking Bangkok to [Krathum Baen](/source/Amphoe_Krathum_Baen) of [Samut Sakhon province](/source/Samut_Sakhon_province).[2]

In the nearby area there is a [temple](/source/Wat) named Wat Lak Sam (วัดหลักสาม, "the third milestone temple").[3]

The [MRT Blue Line](/source/MRT_Blue_Line) terminal station, [Lak Song MRT station](/source/Lak_Song_MRT_station), indeed, it is located in the area of Bang Khae Nuea in front of The Mall Bang Khae.[4]
