Patpong Museum

The Patpong Museum documents the transformation of Bangkok's entertainment district through interactive displays, photographs, artifacts, and reconstructed spaces representing different historical periods.

Established in October 2019, the museum traced Patpong's evolution from its 1946 purchase by Luang Patpongpanich through its role as a Cold War intelligence hub for CIA operations.

The museum highlighted Patpong's international cultural influence, featuring visits from celebrities like David Bowie, Robert De Niro, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Christopher Walken during filming or events.

Located on the second floor of building 5 beneath the Black Pagoda on Soi 2, the museum operated daily with tickets priced at 350 baht including audio guides.

The museum featured recreated bar spaces including the Grand Prix with interactive go-go dancer displays and exhibits depicting the area's infamous ping-pong shows using mechanical devices.
