Bueng Sam Phan ({{langx|th|บึงสามพัน}}, {{IPA|th|bɯ̄ŋ sǎːm pʰān|pron}}) is a district (amphoe) in the southern part of Phetchabun province, northern Thailand.
History
Tambon Sap Samo Thot was created by separating it from Tambon Ban Phot, Nong Phai district in 1966. On 15 May 1975 tambon Sap Samo Thot together with tambons Sap Mai Daeng, Nong Chaeng, and Kan Chu were split from Nong Phai District to create the minor district (king amphoe) Bueng Sam Phan.{{cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=92|issue=98 ง|pages=1248|script-title=th:ประกาศกระทรวงมหาดไทย เรื่อง แบ่งท้องที่อำเภอหนองไผ่ จังหวัดเพชรบูรณ์ ตั้งเป็นกิ่งอำเภอบึงสามพัน|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2518/D/098/1248.PDF|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100331194505/http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2518/D/098/1248.PDF|url-status=dead|archive-date=March 31, 2010|date=May 20, 1975|language=Thai}} It was named Bueng Sam Phan ('Sam Phan pond') after the most important water resource of the district.
