Khao San Road

Khao San Road is a repulsive frat boys paradise. The street is really broken up into 100m of repetitions of fake Ids, tailors, bars, food carts, fish massages and screen T's. Like at Disneyland, every night is a calculated repeat. The novelty scoccer player, the flame dancer, the thai guitar player covering western songs. John Mayer, Bob Marley, Oasis, and Jason Marz blast from every bar in a one hour loop. After 11pm the venders vanish into the alleyways and are replaced by 100 whores, many of which are “Lady Boys” All that sex tourism you've heard about in Thailand, you're looking at it.
