<p></p>



<p>There are so many available girls in <a href="https://americanfarang.com/category/pattaya/">Pattaya</a> that it still deserves the praise it gets &#8212; even in 2020. In all my travels I have never really seen another city like it.</p>



<p>Not only are there so many girls around, but the whole city is like a one huge red light district that is waiting to be explored. </p>



<p>Pattaya is not a secret anymore.  In this article I will give you guys the full info on this topic, and give you a great idea of the different types of girls In this city, and what to expect in this city, including prices.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">History of Girls in Pattaya</h2>



<p>Everyone knows that it is the sex capital of South East Asia, and possibly the world. And even now in 2020, thousands of men from all over the world still make Pattaya one of their sex vacations. </p>



<p>But this wasn&#8217;t always the case. Back in the early days of Pattaya&#8217;s tourism the scene was still fresh, and it was only a niche destination &#8212; for the guys who dared make the trip to Thailand. </p>



<p>And who could blame them? The city is home to so many working girls that make a living off the entertainment industry. And as the tourism grows in Pattaya, more and more girls from the poorer regions of Thailand like Issan hear about the business opportunities the place offers. </p>



<p>This is why Pattaya is still considered one of the <a href="https://americanfarang.com/pattaya-vs-angeles-city/">great destinations for single guys</a>. Even with the price inflation, it still is one of the best cities in Thailand for a fun and exciting time.  </p>



<p>You could easily spend weeks in this city and never get bored. Heck you could even spend a few days exploring walking street nightlife and still not get tired of it. </p>



<p><a href="https://americanfarang.com/pattaya-nightlife/">The Pattaya nightlife</a> is just unique in the sense that it has so many sex workers looking to make some money off of the tourism industry. </p>



<p>There is simply so much to do and see that you will always be wondering what the next adventure will be. </p>



<p>Having sex in Pattaya is one of the easiest things to do in Thailand (and maybe even anywhere in the world). And although prices have increases over the years, there are still enough girls to go around for everyone. </p>



<p>And good times can still be had. </p>



<p>Below is the rundown of the different places to meet girls in Pattaya, and the prices you can expect &#8212; both with normal girls and the ones that you meet in the red light areas. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Where is the Red Light District?</h2>



<p>It used to be that Pattaya was almost like one big red light district. It wasn&#8217;t like Bangkok that has three main dedicated adult oriented sex districts. </p>



<p>These days Pattaya authorities have tried to clean up the scene a bit (especially on beach road), and you will find that most of the girls there have been asked to go to the opposite side of the street when they try and entice customers. </p>



<p>But there are still some areas that seem to dedicated to beer bars, go go bars, massage shops and short time bars. And I will let you know of the sex prices for girls in Pattaya. </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Popular Red Light Areas in Pattaya</h3>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Soi 6 </li>



<li>Soi 7</li>



<li>Soi 8 </li>



<li>Soi 13 </li>



<li>Soi 13/1</li>



<li>Walking Street</li>



<li>LK Metro (Soi Buakhoa)</li>
</ul>



<p>So, generally it would be a good idea to stay in a <a href="https://americanfarang.com/guest-friendly-hotels-in-pattaya/">guest friendly hotel near these areas in Pattaya</a>.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pattaya Beer Bar Girls</h2>



<p>There are so many <a href="https://americanfarang.com/beer-bars-in-bangkok/">beer bars in Pattaya</a> that I have lost count, and don&#8217;t even bother checking anymore. </p>



<p>There is just too many. </p>



<p>And as soon as one shuts down, another one seems to open up. The beer bars are &#8220;classic&#8221; and nostalgic in Thailand. And even to this day they are staple in the red light areas, and are very popular amount the American, European, and Asian men that visit them. </p>



<p>Anyone that has enough experience will tell you that the beer bar girls tend to give you better service than the go go girls. It could be a price thing, since the go go bars are more expensive and pushy for drinks.</p>



<p> Typically you pay less to these girls, here are the average costs. </p>



<p><strong>PRICES:</strong></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Bar Fine: Around 500 Baht</li>



<li>Short time: 1,000 &#8211; 2,000 Baht Long Time: 1,500 &#8211; 2,000 Baht</li>
</ul>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pattaya GoGo Bar Girls </h2>



<p>If you really want to experience some of the best adult entertainment, then you should consider the gogo girls as your choice. </p>



<p>The reason is quite simple: these are usually the hottest girls in Pattaya. These types of places only hire the hottest dancers, since they charge the highest prices. </p>



<p>Generally speaking, you get what you pay for, and the same is true here. </p>



<p>Most of the ones I have had experiences with were worth it. And if you know what you are doing, you can find go go girls for good prices. </p>



<p>But that is a whole other article which I won&#8217;t get into here. Here is an idea of the costs:</p>



<p><strong>PRICES:</strong></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Bar Fine: 600-1000 Baht</li>



<li>Short time: 2,000 Baht Long Time: 3000+ Baht</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pattaya Freelancer Girls </h2>



<p><a href="https://americanfarang.com/freelancers-in-pattaya/">Freelancers</a> are the ladies that choose to work on their own. They are &#8220;independent&#8221;. </p>



<p>With these types you don&#8217;t pay for bar fines, and you pay them directly. The benefits of these girls are that they tend to be cheaper than the bars. And you can find them in a few places such as:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Beach Road (now mostly on the opposite side of the street)</li>



<li><a href="https://americanfarang.com/the-best-nightclubs-in-pattaya/">The Nightclubs</a></li>



<li>Walking Street</li>



<li>Online</li>



<li>Pretty much anywhere that has a nightlife area</li>
</ul>



<p>Some guys are hesitant to get freelancers off the street because there is a risk associated with it. Because you never really know who they are. At least with bar girl you have an idea of where they work, and most of them get tested often for STD&#8217;s. </p>



<p>With freelancers, anything can go, especially the ones you see late at night on the street. With time you will gain experience and have a better judgement on which ones are less risky. </p>



<p>But don&#8217;t let doubt stop you. </p>



<p>I mean many guys prefer getting sex this way in Pattaya. It can be cheaper, a bit more exciting, and less of a hassle then going to the bars and clubs. Especially if you get her from online. </p>



<p>There are so many women online looking to meet men that it is almost ridiculous. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://www.thaifriendly.com/?ai=1874&amp;cid=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="728" height="90" src="https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/728x90-ad3.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1230" srcset="https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/728x90-ad3.jpg 728w, https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/728x90-ad3-300x37.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 728px) 100vw, 728px" /></a></figure>



<p><strong>PRICES:</strong></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Short time: 1000 Baht (can sometimes be cheaper) </li>



<li>long time: 1500 Baht (sometimes cheaper)</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What About Normal Girls?</h2>



<p>OK, so most of this article is focusing on the pay for pleasure concept, but lets not forget that there are many &#8220;normal&#8221; girls in Pattaya. The ones that have regular jobs and are not working directly in the entertainment industry.</p>



<p>To be fair, these types of girls do not have it easy. Imagine how frustrating it can be for them. Almost all the girls in this city are stereotyped to some extent. And the good ones usually have to compete for the attention of the foreign tourists too.</p>



<p>If you are in Pattaya and want to meet these good girls then you need to know a few things. </p>



<p>Be sincere with them, and make an effort to show them you don&#8217;t judge them. Also be honest about what you expect from them. If you want a serious relationship with them then make it clear. </p>



<p>If you are only looking for casual short term fun then let them know. I don&#8217;t recommend to play with their emotions. </p>



<p>Don&#8217;t forget that these types of girls are not hardened pros. Actually, most of these types of Thai girls are quite shy and sensitive, especially if you are a foreigner with a lot of dating experience back home. </p>



<p>This is why it is best to take your time with them and show you are genuinely interested in them. Ask them out on a date. In Pattaya some great date ideas with normal girls include the following:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Hanging out and talking the beach &#8212; watching the sunset</li>



<li>Going to a nice Thai restaurant</li>



<li>Shopping at the Mall &#8212; its nice and cold in there too</li>



<li>Going to a nightclub or listening to Live Music</li>



<li>Visiting some nearby Buddhist Temples</li>



<li></li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pattaya Soapy Massage Girls </h2>



<p>Generally speaking, the girl in the <a href="https://americanfarang.com/soapy-massage-parlors-in-pattaya/">Soapy Massage Parlors in Pattaya</a> will be the more attractive, especially the ones that are on the higher end. So expect price to be higher there, and the service is also known to be more satisfying. The great thng about these places is that you can see all the girls in the fishbowl, and make your choice. There is huge selection, and you will always find a nice attractive lady to give you service. </p>



<p><strong>PRICES:</strong> Around 2,500Baht &#8211; 3000 Baht for 90 Minutes at most places</p>

<p>As the sun sets in <a style="" href="https://americanfarang.com/bangkok-nightlife-areas/">Bangkok</a>, the red light districts become alive. Single male foreigners stroll the streets, the temptations of hanging out with lovely Thai women becomes very apparent. </p>



<p>And although prostitution is considered illegal in Thailand, it is still obvious that it is going on behind the scenes. </p>



<p>But is it really as Taboo as people think? </p>



<p>Well, that is really for you to decide. Just keep in mind that most people are quick to judge what the sex tourism in Thailand really represents.</p>



<p>In Bangkok, these areas can be a fun place for adults who want to experiences the naughty fun to be had. </p>



<p>In this article I will point you guys in the right direction. After reading this you will know exactly where the red light areas are in Bangkok, and more details of each place. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Intro to Bangkok&#8217;s 3 Red Light Districts</h2>



<p>The industry is estimated to be worth around 6.5 Billion annually (as of 2015), and by now, it would be much more than that. </p>



<p>Due to the history of sex trade in this country, what really goes on in these parts of town is very well tolerated. It is even looked upon as a &#8220;site seeing&#8221; by many tourists. The locals accept it for what it is and nothing more, which is a way to monetize off the huge tourism industry in Thailand, especially in the capital city of Bangkok. </p>



<p>It my be illegal, but it sure doesn&#8217;t seem that way. </p>



<p>There seems to be some sort of harmony to it all. And considering the type of tourist traffic it gets, there seems to be an unspoken order to all things in these areas. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img decoding="async" width="630" height="418" src="https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Bar-Girls-in-Soi-Cowboy.jpg" alt="Thai girls working in Soi Cowboy" class="wp-image-172" srcset="https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Bar-Girls-in-Soi-Cowboy.jpg 630w, https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Bar-Girls-in-Soi-Cowboy-300x199.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px" /><figcaption>Bar girls in Bangkok&#8217;s famous Soi Cowboy district</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>Most of the girls that work in the red light district bars in Bangkok are from the north eastern part of the country call Issan. It is a rural country side that is considered to be poorer than Bangkok, and other well developed cities. </p>



<p>Keep in mind that almost all of these girls <strong>choose</strong> to work in the bars, and are not forced to. Many do it to help their families, buy a home, automobile, or latest smartphones. In other words, they control their finances.  </p>



<p>The Thai women try to make a living by attending to customers from all nationalities, especially Asia, American, and European single men.  It is not uncommon to see all types of tourists in an around these parts of Bangkok. From single men, to couples, and even sometimes families, like in Patpong. It is also worth noting that many of <a href="https://americanfarang.com/guest-friendly-hotels-in-bangkok/">Bangkok&#8217;s popular guest friendly hotels </a>are located in and around these areas</p>



<p>These places are somewhat looked up as &#8220;entertainment&#8221; zones, as opposed to the traditional term. </p>



<p><strong>RELATED LINK</strong><br><a href="https://americanfarang.com/bangkok-nightlife-areas/">The Best Nightlife Areas in Bangkok</a></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Patpong</h2>



<p>Patpong was born out of the Vietnam War era, and gained popularity as it was frequented by the soldiers. And now this nightlife area in Silom is one the cities original adult tourists attractions &#8212; even if just visiting it for nostalgic reasons. </p>



<p>Patpong is Bangkok&#8217;s first red light district, and that is why I am listing it here first. It deserves some respect.</p>



<p>There are two alleys here: <strong>Patpong Soi 1</strong> and <strong>Patpong Soi 2</strong>. </p>



<p>Back in the days, Patpong used to be a place where only single men, foreign businessmen, or soldiers would frequent. A lot has changed though, these days you will see all types of tourist here. The original vibes of Patpong, which represented &#8220;sinful&#8221; or &#8220;underground&#8221; nightlife vibe in Bangkok simply doesn&#8217;t exists anymore. It is more like a tourist attraction, mixed with a night market, with a backdrop of go go bars. </p>



<p>This whole area in Silom is somewhat of a night market which becomes alive as the night progresses. </p>



<p>Patpong is also famous for its &#8220;ping pong shows&#8221; where the bar girls perform some outrageous shows that will be sure to leave a lasting impression on you. But just be warned, there are tourist scams that sometimes happen. There are cases where the bars charge you extra, or tell you to pay more than what you were first told. </p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Drinks: 150-180 Baht for bottles beer</li><li>Lady drinks 140 &#8211; 200 Bah</li><li>Bar Fine: 600-1000 Baht</li></ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Nana Plaza</h2>



<p>Nana Plaza is a world famous.  </p>



<p>This complex hosts 3 floors of <a href="https://americanfarang.com/go-go-bars-in-bangkok/">amazing go go bars in Bangkok </a>in a courtyard style concept. Filled with tons of beautiful go go dancers, this place is home to some of the best adult entertainment in Bangkok.  </p>



<p>Expect prices to be high as it is a very popular hangout for tourists, and one of the main nightlife attractions in Bangkok.  </p>



<p>The atmosphere is almost surreal, and a few drinks will add to this dream-like state. Especially after you see some of the world most beautiful ladyboys that work in some of the bars. Sometimes you really can&#8217;t tell what gender they are!</p>



<p>You can chill out in the ground floor in one of the many open air <a href="https://americanfarang.com/beer-bars-in-bangkok/">beer bars</a>. Sit down, relax, and take in the surroundings. Witness the huge amount of <a href="https://americanfarang.com/freelancers-in-bangkok/">freelancers</a> lined up across the entrance across Nana Plaza. </p>



<p>Listen to the music playing and plan which go go bar you would like to check out. There are many, but some of the most popular ones are Billboard, Angelwitch. </p>



<p>A good idea is to visit a few of the bars and see for yourself how you like them. </p>



<p><strong>Prices in Nana Plaza:</strong></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Drinks: Around 150-200 baht for bottled beer</li><li>Lady Drinks:150-200 Baht</li><li>Barfine: 600-1000 Baht</li></ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://americanfarang.com/thai-friendly-review/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow"><img decoding="async" width="728" height="90" src="https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/728x90-ad3.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1230" srcset="https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/728x90-ad3.jpg 728w, https://americanfarang.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/728x90-ad3-300x37.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 728px) 100vw, 728px" /></a></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Soi Cowboy</h2>



<p>Quite possibly one of Bangkok&#8217;s brightest alleys, with neon lights creating a very enchanting scene. A lot can be said about this place, but boring is not one of them. </p>



<p>With plenty of bar girls around, Soi Cowboy attracts single male tourists like no tomorrow. </p>



<p>Do you wanna know how it got it&#8217;s name?</p>



<p>It was all thanks to an original African American bar owner who liked to wear cowboy hats. Over time this alley was referred to as Soi Cowboy, and the name stuck. It is now one of Bangkok&#8217;s best red light area. </p>



<p>As you walk by, you will be amazed how many bars can be crammed in such a street.</p>



<p>Exciting, claustrophobic, loud, euphoric &#8212; those are a few words that can describe the feeling one gets when they walk through this alley on any given night. </p>



<p>The location of Soi Cowboy is not that far from Nana Plaza, which is another dedicate area for adult entertainment.  It would take around 15 minutes to walk to get there.  </p>



<p>Soi Cowboy alley is the one that is adjacent to Sukhumvit Road, between Asoke and Sukhumvit Soi 23. </p>



<p>One of the great things about Soi Cowboy is that it is host to some Thailand&#8217;s best gogo bars. With popular places like Baccara, Tilac, and Crazy House just by the entrance on Soi 23. </p>



<p>You will experience some of the best partying of your life here, as you get to spend some time with the attractive go go girls. </p>



<p>Prices at Soi Cowboy Bars</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Drinks: 150-190 Baht</li><li>Lady Drinks: 150-200 Baht</li><li>Barfine: 600-1000 Baht</li></ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Safety</h2>



<p>Personally, I have never had any issues at any of these places mentioned here. But keep in mind that I am a experienced traveler, and keep attention to what is going on around me. </p>



<p>I have seen some issues arise between customers (foreigners) and the bar manager/bouncers. Most of the problems that can arise can be avoided. here are the things that can happen in a bad situation:</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list"><li>Disagreements with the bill </li><li>Rude behavior from drunk customers</li><li>Rude behavior from the waitress or bouncers</li><li>Problems with the dancers (she leaves after you bought her drink, or the customer is too aggressive with the bar girl)</li><li>Arguments with other foreigners (rare)</li></ol>



<p>As you can see these are the things to look out for when you decide to party in such places. </p>



<p>Generally speaking, Bangkok has safe red light districts. The best thing to do is use your judgement. If you feel one of the places is not right for you then simply leave and check out another area. </p>



<p>If you feel you are being treated rudely, then simply leave. Never become confrontational in these types of places, especially in a foreign city. </p>
