Possibly the most lively and exotic district in Thailand, Patpong is an entertainment district found in Bangkok, the capital of the country. Located between the roads of Silom and Surawong, the area is famous for its nightlife in terms of bars and the Patpong Night Market. While the streets are dotted with clubs, bars and various other places of entertainment, this district is not restricted in terms of activity. The Night Market, for instance, has proven to be a site that attracts tourists, backpackers and locals alike to its series of outlets selling everything from handbags to sunglasses and souvenirs. The area is very well policed and is complete with cameras as well in order to ensure that things do not get out of hand.
Patpong is also complete with a number of restaurants, cafes and bars for those who wish to have a quiet evening out. Visitors who wish to dine on French cuisine can visit Le Bouchon, a quality restaurant that serves French dishes. Before a bout of heavy shopping at the Night Market, one may wish to have a small meal and the Salasawan which sells Thai food and is good value for money. The district is complete with your average pub while bars which are decorated thematically are also a big hit among visitors. For instance, Patpong is home to a Vietnam War era bar. In addition to perhaps a game of pool, the locale also has a nightclub or two where you can dance the night away.
The nightlife in Bangkok is as wild or as relaxed and soothing as one wishes it to be for there is always something for everyone. If you opt to stay at a Bangkok hotel choose one that has a central location. Travellers looking to live it up when in the city can stay at luxury hotels Bangkok has to offer. For those who wish to enjoy seclusion from these busy streets yet be close enough to the city, an urban sanctuary by the name of Anantara Bangkok Sathorn makes an ideal choice and lets you enjoy a wide range of contemporary comforts and conveniences that are bound to make your holiday even more memorable.
