Kaeng Sanam Nang (Thai: แก้งสนามนาง) is the northernmost district (amphoe) of Nakhon Ratchasima Province, northeastern Thailand.
On January 7, 1986 the four tambon Kaeng Sanam Nang, Non Samran, Bueng Phalai and Si Suk were split off from Bua Yai district and created the minor district (King Amphoe) Kaeng Sanam Nang. The government officially upgraded it to a full district on October 20, 1993.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Mueang Chaiyaphum and Khon Sawan of Chaiyaphum Province, Waeng Noi of Khon Kaen Province, Bua Yai and Ban Lueam of Nakhon Ratchasima Province.
The district is subdivided into 5 subdistricts (tambon). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas within the district.
