Exploring Bangkok's Red Light Districts for First Timers

Visiting Bangkok's red light districts for the first time could induce a real serious case of lock jaw and whiplash as beautiful Thai bar girls prance and dance all around you. It can be quite intimidating when you step out the door of your hotel and dive deep into the pool of sex, booze and sin known as Bangkok's red light districts.

Bangkok has 3 major red light districts designed to keep foreign men entertained while spending money. The first and foremost for every first timer to Bangkok is Patpong, the place where the go go bar culture sprang forth. Then we have the red light districts of Nana and Soi Cowboy, the slightly raunchier and sleazier havens for sex.

The red light district of Patpong comprises of several small lanes and streets with a mixture of go go bars for straights, gay bars for gays and lesbians and even a sliver of road called Thaniya created especially for high paying Japanese customers. Most of Patpong's action happens on Patpong1 and Patpong 2, both streets run parallel to each other.

Nana red light district is where you can find a lot of Thai freelancer hang out spots such as the parking lot of the Nana hotel or along the beer gardens on Sukhumvit Soi 4 and Soi 7. But Nana's red light district is centered around Nana Entertainment Plaza, a small 3 story complex with an open center for beer bars.

Finally there's Soi Cowboy, the smallest red light district but certainly the most wicked. Here you can find long standing and popular go go bars such as Long Gun, Cowboys and Rawhide. Though Soi Cowboy's prices for drinks and adultainment are a bit higher, it's early evening happy hours is a great way to start of the the night.

One thing you should always remember as a first timer in a go go bar is to not to tell a bar girl it's your first time in Bangkok. Bar girls will assume you don't know the rates they charge and will double the prices for their services.

When it comes to the language barrier in Bangkok's red light districts most will have someone who can speak English, such as a Mamasan or Papasan. They kind of act like managers and work to make sure you have a good time. Most bar girls can speak English too. But this means they've been well worn around the edges and been in the go go bar scene for quite some time.

Getting to Bangkok's red light districts is really easy especially when you use the BTS train systems. These trains run on elevated tracks above the traffic packed streets of Bangkok's commercial zone. The fares are cheap and the train compartments are nice and chilly from a hot Bangkok day.
