Bang Kapi (Thai: บางกะปิ, pronounced [bāːŋ kāpìʔ]) is one of the 50 districts (khet) of Bangkok, Thailand. Bang Kapi is also popularly known as Hua Mak or Ramkhamhaeng. It is bounded by other Bangkok districts (from north clockwise): Bueng Kum, Saphan Sung, Prawet, Suan Luang, Huai Khwang, Wang Thonglang, and Lat Phrao.

Hua Mak is the main hub for sports and recreation in Bangkok, primarily anchored by the expansive Hua Mak Sports Complex managed by the Sports Authority of Thailand.
