Patpong 2: There are currently three male go-go bars operating on Patpong 2: Dream Boy, Fresh Boys and Hot Male. Along with the Midnight Bar and Red Dragon beer bars at street level, the Suriwong end of Patpong 2 has certainly come back to life. If you’re looking for an old school Bangkok fuck show, Dream Boy is the place to catch it. Screw Boys has yet to re-open. Lucky Boys has been taken over by Dream Boy. Soi 4: A number of strolls along the soi show that it has made a strong recovery with good crowds on most nights. Jupiter is rocking. The current staff is even more impressive than what they had prior to the pandemic. Much has changed on Soi Tantawan (Silom Soi 6), with none of the bars being exactly what they were before the pandemic. Yet, at the same time, it is all same-same on this more dubious side of the scene, with some venues gone but not gone. Example: Tawan Bar has moved across the soi from their former location. Silom Soi 6: Of the three, old, sleaze bars on the soi – the Golden Cock, Nature Boy and Super A. Golden Cock is now operating from the Nature Boy premises, with signage for both the Golden Cock and Nature Boy still at that venue. Super A is supposed to reopen sometime in September. Further down towards the Silom end of Soi Tantawan, the dubious massage parlours are operating as normal. Soi Thaniya 2: A couple of weekend trips to Moonlight show that the bar is doing well. Just opposite Moonlight is the newly-opened Surawong Café. Bangkok is swinging again!

The one that is most similar to the former Babylon is Chakran Sauna / VCK Cool Space / V Club 7. Beautiful rooms. Great massages. Hot Asian men. However they do discriminate on pricing. Non-Thai and older men pay more. Mostly younger Thai customers. Many of the gay saunas in Bangkok are similar facility-wise. They do vary with respect to the customers they attract. You'll need to visit several to find the one which best suits your needs.

With the pandemic waning the hotels, bars, restaurants, beaches and other attractions are opening up. Visitors will be pleased to find many of these places have spent their downtime refreshing, remodeling & redecorating. There are also a number of new businesses opening as well. The Jomtien Complex is no exception. Some 30 gay bars, pubs, restaurants, massage places and hotels are all within a couple of blocks with the gay beach a short walk away.

Finally the bar scene is returning to normal. Most bars that will re-open have, including the go-go bars, and opening hours are returning to normal... until 2 a.m. at least. The bars that have permanently closed are being replaced with new ones. The larger crowds will be found in the Jomtien Complex followed by Boyztown and Sunee. The super discounts available during the height of the epidemic are falling away. However, with careful searching, may still be found in a few places. Some signs of inflation are also showing up. You are likely to find many of the changes in the scene refreshing.

A couple of updates: Dragon Man Club in Central Pattaya Road 12-5 is OPEN A-Bomb A Go-Go in Boyz Town 2nd Soi (325/75) is OPEN Toy Boys A GoGo in Boyz Town 3rd Soi (325/100) opened in 1992, is OPEN
