Noobie's Guide to Patpong

Part 3 of my Noobie's guide...

Patpong is a strange mix of sex for sale with over-priced souvenirs on the side. Where one can easily see men charmed by the gyrating hips of go go bar girls side by side with hordes of middle aged Mainland Chinese tourists checking out "Sawadee Thailand" tee shirts. Patpong is also the where you find the most persistent and irritating touts especially for the sex shows.

And it's not only a red light district where you can shop for trinkets. Patpong is the only place where you can watch live sex shows and acts. But be cautious as most places operating sex shows are out to scam you! You heard of that "someone you know or someone who knows someone story"? More of that later...

Patpong is not just for heterosexuals either. There are several gay hotspots with several locations ranging from chic style gay bars of Silom Soi 4 to the rawness of Soi Twilight's gay go go bars. So if anyone is so inclined to see gogo boys with their dicks hanging out I can make the arrangements.

As you can see Patpong is a district full of contrast. Even though it's nightlife atmosphere is not the favorite among expats and seasoned visitors to Bangkok's go go bar scene, Patpong is still worthy of a visit and a beer or two at one of the King's group bars.

Patpong's nightlife is a little bit more spread out. However, its go go bars are all concentrated into two streets; Patpong Soi 1 and Patpong Soi 2.

Patpong 1 has the most go go bars, including the more popular King's group establishments such as King's Castle 1, 2 and 3. When 7pm rolls in the famous Night Market opens up for business right on the street of Patpong 1.

Since the days of the Vietnam era Patpong has long held the bragging rights as the best go go bar district in Bangkok. Today its reputation has wavered a bit amongst the rapid commercialization spreading throughout the Silom District and the improvements made in Soi Cowboy and Nana.

However, Patpong's go go bars are still a raw front for prostitution and now matter how many markets and commercial brand named stores open up in the area, the sale of sex will still be the top money maker and attraction for male tourists. All go go bars are located in Patpong Soi 1 and Patpong Soi 2. As mentioned earlier, your best chances of finding attractive bar girls or ladyboys are in a group of bars called King's and Queen's name in it. They are a name that is well established in Patpong to the point they are almost an institution.

Keep in mind only King's Castle 3 features an all ladyboy cast of bar girls. And the ladyboys inside do quote higher prices but are said to give the best blowjobs! You decide! 555+

On Patpong Soi 2 you will find a handful of newer bars that are worth checking out too. And they too have a fair share of attractive bar girls, giving the bars on the opposite end a run for the money. Bada Bing and Black Pagoda are some serious competitors in Patpong's go go bar arena.

There are also a few alternatives types of bars. The first are a set of popular blow job bars also located in Soi 2, Star of Love and Mike's Place. Both bars charge about 800THB for a blow job and you can short time the girls as as well for around 1500THB to 2000THB.

Patpong Sex Shows
It's best to AVOID going to a sex show in Patpong not unless you have a lot of money and are not worried about getting ripped off.

Sex show bars or establishments are usually on the second floors along Patpong Soi 1 and a few places on Soi 2. Don't worry about finding a sex show bar because there are plenty of touts standing around carrying small menus advertising whats on offer.

Essentially these are bars with way overpriced drinks that seem cheap at first. So if a tout tells you a beer cost 100THB you might as well double that amount. And they'll say that the show is free to watch might also be a lie as you'll only ending up finding out when they hand you the bill and your way is blocked by a couple of Thai thugs high on meth. Going to the Tourist Police is also of little help since their effectively at best an information counter.

But as I mentioned earlier if you have the extra cash to blow and don't mind paying extras you might as well take a look see and find out what the fuss is all about. You'd either enjoy Thai bar girls shooting ping pong balls and pulling razors out of their vaginas or run to the bathroom puking.

Getting There
BTS Sala Deang or MRT Silom stations.
