Patpong: Infamous Patpong
  • Tip Rating:
  • Nightlife Spot: Patpong

    After dinner, campy012, littlegirl0130 (Cathy), and I decided to check out Patpong, one of the infamous Red Light Districts of Bangkok. I'd always heard about it and was curious to know more about this seedier (and sad) aspect of Thai life. Suffice it to say, I did, via a little incident we had involving a tout, lady boys (or lack thereof), 300Bht sodas, and one straw (not used for the drinks). Sweet and wholesome Cathy, hope you weren't traumatized by this bizarre experience.

    Patpong: Shopping and Sex Shows
  • Tip Rating:
  • Nightlife Spot: Patpong

    Night markets abound all over Thailand, but this particular one is at world-famous Patpong. Here, street vendors offering bargain deals mask the ubiquitous go-go bars that have given Patpong its reputation. Men, farang or not love it here, while many others are just disgusted and saddened by the idea. But no matter what, the sex trade remains a societal norm, which continues to generate a substantial amount of income yearly from tourists.
