One of Bangkok's colourful nightlife areas, especially along "New Petchburi road". Massage parlours, hostess bars, discos, clubs, restaurants and nightclubs pop up along New Petchburi road and in the streets running between New Petchburi Road and Sukhumvit. Don't get the impression its a congested area, it isn't, and many of the nightlife areas appear in small pockets with some of the new and more hip venues making an appearance around Thonglor, at the eastern end of New Petchburi road. The Skytrain does not run along New Petchburi road or its sister road, Petchburi running to the west, but there are plenty of taxis with an encyclopedic knowledge of the streets, ready to whisk you from one place to another.
