Phachi (Thai: ภาชี; IPA: [pʰāːtɕʰīː]) is a district in the eastern part of Ayutthaya province.
The district was created in 1953, by separating it from Uthai District.
Phachi in Thai means divide or junction, which refers to the railway junction between the northern and northeastern branch within this district.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Tha Ruea of Ayutthaya Province, Nong Saeng and Nong Khae of Saraburi Province, and Uthai and Nakhon Luang of Ayutthaya again.
The district is divided into eight sub-districts (tambon).
