Lam Luk Ka (Thai: ลำลูกกา; IPA: [lām lûːk kāː]) is a district (Amphoe) of Pathum Thani Province, central Thailand.
The name Lam Luk Ka originates from a fertile pond in the district named Bueng Lam Luk Ka. When the government created the district Lam Luk Ka in 1904, they cut the word Bueng off.
The district is located in a part of Thung Luang same as the districts Thanyaburi and Khlong Luang. Khlong Rangsit is the main water resource of the district.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Thanyaburi of Pathum Thani, Ongkharak of Nakhon Nayok Province, Bang Nam Priao of Chachoengsao Province, Nong Chok, Khlong Sam Wa, Sai Mai and Don Mueang of Bangkok, and Mueang Pathum Thani.
The district is subdivided into 8 subdistricts (tambon). There are two towns (thesaban mueang) – Khu Khot and Lam Sam Kaeo – and two townships (thesaban tambon) – Lam Luk Ka and Lam Sai. There are 7 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
