Ok, so you know what you're going to get here, but it's worth the short trip acros town. First off, it's really easy to get in snd out via sala daeng BTS station. At no point did I feel unsafe and there wasn't much hassle. Yes there was an offer of a ping-pong show at every 10yds, but it you... More

This market is an interesting place for cheap-shopping in Bangkok. Be wary of your bag/wallet because so many people shopping around. Sure you can buy any stuff like: belts, clothes, jewelry, discs, shoes…Don’t miss it. More

If you arrive at bangkok, you... More

Anything you want you will find at Patpong for a price. There are the night markets, selling all the normal pirated goods and virtually everything else you could think of. Then there are the bar's. Watch out you are not ripped off, some of the girlie bars charge no admission charges but drinks are extremely expensive. It's best to go... More

If this is your visit to an Asian city, a visit should be made here. Otherwise, you will find the same items as in any other Asian night market. Nothing too unique about this market. More

Drug paraphenalia, porn, and fake namebrand stuff. This is for sale, along with sex shows. If you are looking for traditional Thai crafts, look elsewhere. More

Pls AVOID/ IGNORE them, never follow them to watch the show as it's a BIG SCAM. I together with my gf just successfully escaped from a bar called Night... More
