Bangkok, known as the City of Angels is the centre of gay life in Asia. Silom soi 4 is the Gay street of this exotic and very gay friendly city. Here are all the gay clubs, bars, drag and strip shows can be found. Tourists from around the world flock here. Another gay area where you want to spend your evenings partying is along Surawong Road. Many of the taverns, go-go bars and sexy discos are located in the infamous Boy Plaza where the action is hot and the boys are cool.
Soi 4 is one of the side streets at Silom Road. Here are several bars and restaurants with terraces outside. The main popular gay bars is The Balcony It has also an extensive food menu. Best time to go is around 9 - 12.
About 200m away from Soi 2 is Silom Soi 4. This small alley houses the most popular gay club of Bangkok, DJ Station . At the entrance of the alley there is a coat check and a security check. Local people have to show their ID, they usually don't ask this for tourists. In Soi 2 are several other smaller bars located on the ground floor. DJ Station gets busy around 23.30 and is very full in the weekend, music mostly popular dance songs.
100 meter up north is the street with many boys clubs and bars. It's a side street of Surawong Road, and hard to miss with all the boys club neon signs. Beside the boys clubs and massage clubs you will find several outside (normal) terraces, with a nice view what is going on outside the boys clubs and massage clubs. The boys clubs often don't have an entrance fee, you just have to buy a drink. On stage you find local boys, all wearing tiny underwear with a number. You can ask for one to sit next to you, then you have to buy him a drink. Several times a night there is a live show, with real action. It is funny to see how the audience react, some are shocked, some get very excited, and some seem to come every day.
The gay bars, clubs and boys clubs in Bangkok are located close to each other, on side streets next to Silom Road.
Best part to stay is close to Silom Road, near the gay places. At night you can walk back to your hotel. Taxis are very cheap, but often at night they don't put on the meter and ask many times more the normal price. This area is also very central, the sky train has a station here as well.
