Bangkok will never cease to surprise you, at every corner.
Silom is the main area for gay tourism. Although the whole area is open and totally promiscuous, the district has three main streets: Silom Soi 4, the avenue where the majority of gay bars are concentrated and Silom Soi 2, the avenue favored by the local gay scene.
