Places in Phuket - Bangla Road

Places in Phuket - Bangla Road
8 February 2018

Phuket is an island of about 45 square-km in the south part of Thailand and it is the biggest island of them all and has 32 small islands outside its territory.

Phuket is surrounded by the Andaman Sea to the west-south of Thailand. It is connected with Phang province to the north by The Sarasin Bridge and to the east, it has the province of Krabi. Imagine an island with 32 tiny beaches and lots of things to do on and off the island. It is the island where you can get everything you need to have a wonderful vacation. It does not matter if it rains or shines, most of the places are breathtaking regardless.

There are many places from the profane to the sublime to enjoy in Phuket, that’s why this is an enchanting destination.


Patong Beach - Bangla Road We are going to give you information about a special place in Phuket, its name is Bangla Road and we will try to tell you everything about this popular and interesting place in Patong Beach, so you will know something about it before visiting.

Bangla Road is one of the best attractions in Phuket. It is located in the center of Patong Beach in Phuket where all the nightlife is concentrated and what can be seen in this street really impresses the tourists and you are not going to know most of it until you pay a visit and see with your own eyes.

Bangla road starts the party once the night has come and the sun has set. First there is a neon lights festival about four hundred meters in, with surprising events and music combined with cheap beer.



Most of the bars there are competing and that makes the place more interesting, livelier and friendlier. If you want a place to have a wonderful night with your friends in Phuket, stop at Bangla Road and see for yourself what really it is like. This road is full mostly by outdoors bars each one has its own music making a mixture of beats blending with each other sometimes unflatteringly, most of them are beer bars lined up through the street’s length from restaurants, pubs, discos, Go-Go bars to shops and as you walk along the streets you can find shows or street performances as well as vendors, leaflet distributors and more.

Patong Beach - Bangla RoadSoi is a term that is often used in Thailand and we should know its meaning. It stands for tiny street or lane with its famous center, an end, and a beginning. Phuket has the best and wildest nightclubs ever like: Illuzion, Tiger Disco, Seduction Complex which is so close to Jungceylon Shopping Center and U-Thit Road at the end of the road and it is the furthest from the beach. On Bangla Road cars are not allowed after the sunset to make this place unique in Phuket. It is like a fair all night where all people are walking in the corner and in the middle of the streets, sometimes we can find performers and visitors, tourists or locals standing in Bangla Road as well as touts with posters in their hands trying to convince walkers to enter to their shows in clubs or bars. And what we can really see all along this road is girls in swimming suits or skirts in countless of bars in front of Bangla Road. Here you can find GO-GO Bars along the street, as well as spas and laser tag games and of course the live music both in the streets and bars.

Bangla Road ends at the beach lined with many beer bars south of the road like Shipwreck Bar, Kangaroo Bar, Sunset Bar, and there are many friendly cabarets, bars with their own style and atmosphere, performers and of course, the famous ones; ladyboys cabaret dancers persuading people to take photos. And at the street’s end, we can find shops selling fast food, souvenirs, and suits.


Ladyboys cabarets and bars

Patong Beach - Bangla Road Before talking about the most interesting bars and places in Phuket let’s describe or give you some information to take in consideration about the ladyboys in Bangla Road.

Sometimes it is impossible to know if a ladyboy is a girl or a boy, but frequently we can distinguish them if we observe well. And if you wish to take a photo with them, you have to be careful and pay if they ask for it, they normally charge 100 baht.

The ladyboys often have an aggressive character many of them are under drugs effect and if you do not pay, they could throw a tantrum. You can find the ladyboys everywhere on Bangla Road; in the street or bar cabarets. Bangla Road has a friendly atmosphere without fights or violent situations that usually happen in Bangkok.




Some considerations about security

Patong Beach - Bangla Road The government of Thailand wants to bolter tourist’s safety on the island because Phuket is one of the five best tourist destinations and they want to increase revenue from tourism in Thailand.

The governor Patrick Maitri Inthusut said that the officers patrol the bars to keep the security and peace as well as looking out for troublemakers or staging raids to boost security and make each tourist confident that Phuket is a safe place for everyone. Sometimes police officers set up drug-test checkpoints in many different places; karaoke bars, cafés, and nightclubs.

They focus on drugs, children under 18 years old as well as illegal workers. They are doing this to make the tourist happier and feel safe enough to return to visit the wonderful country. Take into account that they check out motorists driving, people partying in nightclubs, passports of foreigners or even work permits, and whoever they suspect of using drugs it does not matter if it is the high season or not.

They want the tourists to feel safe and it is an important matter that everyone should collaborate to inspire more visitors to return.


What and where to eat on Bangla Road

Patong Beach - Bangla Road Soi Bangla is famous all around the world and is the heart of Patong Town with the most prolific and busiest spots of Beach Road’s section, leaving away the beach with a 500-meter line full with bars, restaurants, shops, tailors, and fast food.
