Huai Thap Than (Thai: ห้วยทับทัน, pronounced [hûa̯j tʰáp tʰān]) is a district (amphoe) in the western part of Sisaket province, northeastern Thailand.

The minor district (king amphoe) Haui Thap Than was established on 17 January 1977, when the four tambons, Huai Thap Than, Mueang Luang, Phak Mai, and Kluai Kwang, were split off from Uthumphon Phisai district.

This is because the train had to stop for a long time, the staffs would go to the forest and get red junglefowl.

Madan (Garcinia schomburgkiana) woods could be easily found but it turned out that it gave better scent and taste to their grilled chicken.

Chicken grilled with madan sticks has a fragrant aroma and a slightly sour taste.
