Bangkok

Bangkok in Thailand ranks 3rd on the list of the best and cheapest nightlife cities in the world. A lot of travelers continue to pass through Bangkok not realizing there's more to it than the seedy dregs of Soi Cowboy or the backpacker haven of Khao San Road. Bangkok has developed a vibrant and classy side as the city has become more cosmopolitan. Whether it's a series of gorgeous rooftop hotel bars downtown, rock bars near Ratchathewi, dance clubs just off Sukhumvit, or trendy pubs in Thonglor and Ekamai, there's legitimate, quality adventure to be had.

To be fair though, this applies to a lot of other places in Thailand outside of Bangkok but if you’re looking for a guaranteed good time then Bangkok’s your city. It can be quite hectic, crazy, and manic but the capital of Thailand is known for its stark contrast to the country’s more laidback and pristine sandy beaches. Once here, make sure to visit the areas of Khao San Road, RCA, and Silom Road. Honestly, there’s lots of adventure (and indeed, misadventure) to be had in Bangkok but if ever you wanted an uninhibited party experience quite unlike any other place you’ve been to, Bangkok is where you need to be.
