Rawhide Show Bar

Tourist — Tue, 01 Jan 2013 08:10:00 +0000

When entering Soi Cowboy from Asoke Road and public transport like MRT or BTS, Rawhide bar is one of the first venues on the right side. You don't even need to use a map to find this establishment. It's opposite of Dejavu Bangkok coyotee dance pub. Rawhide is known for it's shows at late hours. Their music is mostly hardrock from what I remember, what is a nice change to plastic beats of new coyotee dance pubs. Full story »

One of the oldest bars on Bangkok's nightlife Mile number one.

Showgirls and coyotee dancers, glossy and laid back.

Renovated in summer 2012 Dejavu bar was trsnaformed from a tame and worn out agogo gar into a mix of coyotee dancers and regular dancers. Bypassers will probably notice a loarge amount of doorgirls standing infront of the house. These girls are mostly Bangkok coyotee dancers who step their high heels infront of customers while wearing tights hot pants and tiny tops. Full story »

Daytime Photos

Tourist — Sat, 28 Jul 2012 12:13:00 +0000

That's where most people enter Soi Cowboy: entrance on Asoke Road with large sign. Avoid taking stading taxis here at night. They just don't want to bring you home for regular fee, but insist on taking you to places you never heard of to collect commissions and overpriced fare if you are unlucky. Strange, how different it looks daytime.

Looks very tame during daytime: Baccara. At night time it hosts 2 floors of bikini dancers and tequila girls that are separated by transparent glass floor. The best place to give men stiff necks.

Nice bar with Thai coyotee dancers: Club Rio. They really made a nice place out of this old joint. Usually, it is not very crowded.

Newer and renovated small night bar. Name suggest it to be a ladyboy bar, but I was too shy to go inside.

Loud Music and booze, that's Country Road. This sports bar was used to be close to Therme on Sukhumvit Soi 15, but moved here some years ago (too long ago to Remember)

Long perspective of Soi Cowboy up to Cowboy 2 bar

Deja Vu coyotee dancer and Tilac agogo bar. Actually, those two bars offer all one needs.

During daytime everything is calm and romantically innocent. Bars are closed and deliveries take place. It's like that until 16h when bargirls from neighbouring dormitories start to wake up. They flock out to the streets for late lunch and first bars open their outdoor areas for daytime drinkers and lost tourists. Full story »

Thai Flood 2011

Tourist — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 12:50:00 +0000

Thailand suffered from a great flood from October to November 2011 and outer areas of Bangkok were deep under water. During the last week of November 2011 there were even speculations about central Bangkok and Sukhumvit to be submerged. Residents and bar owners on Soi Cowboy started to prepare for possible water by building up defense walls with sand bags. However, the flood was averted and Soi Cowboy remained dry for the time being. Full story »

Youtube Videos

Tourist — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 17:04:00 +0000

Every bar on Soi Cowboy has the same big sign on their entrance door: no video and no photo taking allowed. Their staff is advices to ask customers not to use their mobile phones at any time. Why? It's probably better not to ask. People in red-light districts from various countries don't seem to like publicity on one side, but live off of it in another way. However, a lot of private investigators keep filming their visits in Soi Cowboy bars and many clips find their way to Youtube, the World's largest video sharing platform. Full story »
