What do you find in the entertainment mile and which are the most popular?

Pattaya’s red light area is divided into several roads. Most establishments are English-speaking, and Soi Diamond and Walking Street are probably the best-known streets in the countless entertainment areas. The two inputs of these roads are marked with illuminated signs.

The nighttime pedestrian road of Walking Street attracts many sex tourists, and on this walking street are numerous shops and bars, a massage parlour, beer bars and restaurants.

 

History and development of sex tourism in Pattaya

The Vietnam War, which ended in 1976, left a very strong mark on the former fishing village. The village recovered gradually, and because Pattaya was located near the sea and because of the overpopulation of already established exotic beaches all over Europe and South America, it gradually established itself as a sex tourism centre.

 The demand for such holiday travel increased, and as a result, locals realised more and more what travellers would really like if they spent their holidays there. ‘Lust mile’ District was the name given to the city when construction of over 40,000 hotel rooms began in 1986 and continued through 1993.

New development with a chance to change direction?

Pattaya made a lot of money through this kind of sex tourism, but its image suffered greatly. The reputation of sex tourism held by the place made many families with children not want to spend their holidays there.

 Efforts were made to make the city family-friendly again, so some beach courses and sports programs were introduced for children’s holidays. Family hotels were also built, but these didn’t do much to help the already tarnished image of the place, as the demand for sex never really stopped.

If what you want is just to relax on the beach in the sunshine and enjoy some good and peaceful time, then you should stay away from Pattaya, especially if you find the idea of commercial sex offensive.

Pattaya nightlife and sex tourism

Over 30,000 prostitutes offer their bodies for paid love. They are mainly young Thai girls who must do this work to earn a living or to feed their families. Thailand has tightened the law on child prostitution, so now clear rules exist to protect minors.

Women’s rates and the time they spend with a client are completely different. It has nothing to do with personal “talent” or “Technology”. There are love hotels where you can take the prostitutes and one of them is there at the beach.
