Royal City Avenue (RCA), the epicenter of Bangkok’s club and nightlife zone

Royal City Avenue (or just RCA as it is known by locals) is one of the biggest entertainment areas in Bangkok, but among tourists it may be one of the least known. RCA is a long road hosting a multitude of different types of bars and clubs and a great variety of music depending on the bar you visit. Multi-million watt sound systems blast out Thai disco, house and R&B, as well as the usual American/Brit pop. What’s great about RCA is the wide range of places to eat and drink and the variety of themes in the clubs and restaurants. The quickest way to RCA is by MRT or BTS, with a brief taxi ride the rest of the way. The nearest MRT station is Pharam 9 or Petchaburi and the nearest BTS station is Asok or Phrom Phong.
