Where to party: The complete guide to Bangkok nightlife
Because there's so much more to the city's after-dark action than sleaze and bad karaoke
Multi-winged Route 66 is the mother of all nightclubs on Bangkok's famed bar strip, RCA. Anyone who thinks Bangkok nightlife is all about sleaze and bad karaoke either hasn't bothered to look beyond the clichés or actually seeks out such places.
In reality, this is one of the most diverse and happening cities in Asia when the sun goes down.
Whether you want to see and be seen, chill with friends to retro beats, catch a kicking live band or hit the dance floor crumping, Bangkok's bars, pubs and clubs are a colorful tribute to relentless revelry.
When it comes to choosing the right style and atmosphere for your evening, the range of designs and diversions on offer is as eclectic as the clientele that frequents them.
