| Bangkok is not only colorful in daytime but
also after sunset when the city takes on a different light and
comes to life to offer amusement 24-hours around the clock.
Patpong
Probably the most popular night-life spot in the city, located
between Silom Road and Surawong Road, the Patpong area is full
of a-go-go bars and beer bars. There are also exciting Thai
boxing (Muai Thai) bouts in the three short streets comprising
Patpong.

In the Sukhumvil Road area there are another two
popular night-life spots:
Nana Entertainment Plaza
(or N.E.P.) in Sukhumvit Soi 4 and
Soi Cowboy which is located
between Sukhumvit Soi 21 and 23.
If you like to sip a drink while listening to music, there
are plenty of places for such activities such as Renoir at
Sukhumvit Soi
33 or Brown Sugar and Round Midnight in
the Soi Sarasin, Soi Lang Suan
area.
For dancing yon can visit
Royal City
Avenue which is known as RCA
among the teenagers who frequent the area. This is where yon
find the Thai yuppies listening to non-stop CD music. If yon are
a little old for RCA vou can try Premier on Rama IX.

More jazz can be found at Saxophone at
The Victory Monument;
Bobby's Arms in Patpong; Witch's Tavern in Sukhumvit 55 and Blue
Moon at Gaysorn Plaza. Other places for good music are the many
first-class hotels in Bangkok.
For those who are crazy about tile beat and not content to
just listen or look there is Peppermint Bistro in Patpong I, and
Rome Club at Patpong III and some discotheques around
Ratchadaphisek Road such as in Capital City. For disco dancing
there is Bubbles at the Dusit Thani Hotel, The Party House at
Rama 9 and Taurus at Sukhumvit Soi 22, all open from 22:00 to
02:00 hours. |
