The Thai Government has approved a same-sex civil partnership bill to crease the legal rights of gay and lbian upl, and Bangkok’s top private hospal, Bumngrad, opened a clic specifilly for LGBTQ+ patients 2021. Homophobia still exists, of urse, as do every untry, but is rare Thailand, and beg ls mon as young Thai people are reared a natn that’s creasgly clive of gay and lbian people.

The wispread warmth Thailand towards the gay and lbian muny was highlighted April 2021 after a Thai gay uple received ath threats om Indonian ter ers for postg photos of their weddg. This explas why Thailand has bee a hugely popular tourist statn for gay and lbian travelers the last 20 years.

As well as acceptance, the untry has a lively LGBTQ+ social scene wh every major Thai cy and beach rort home to many gay and lbian venu. Bangkok’s Silom district, which teems wh gay bars and nightclubs, is wily nsired the largt gay entertament area Asia.

THE BTER TTH BEHD THAILAND'S GAY-IENDLY IMAGE

Although the ma gay scene is ncentrated Bangkok, the equally betiful getaways Phet, Koh Samet, and Pattaya are also worth a vis for LGBTQ travelers.

GAYS THAILAND: IS A LGBT IENDLY UNTRY FOR TOURISM?

If you’re travelg to Thailand as a gay uple, wh your gay iends, or by yourself, you n expect a fun, welg atmosphere and loads of great parti.

While gay travelers will generally have no issu travelg here, LGBTQ rights Thailand for lols rema a work progrs. Silom Soi 2 is where you’ll fd gay clubs and parti, and Silom Soi 4 is where you’ll fd more relaxed bars and dg optns. Silom Soi 2 is home to most of Bangkok’s gay clubs, and the whole street is almost like a club plex, so you need to pay to get to the street self.

GAY THAILAND TRAVEL GUI

There aren’t any gay-specific bars and clubs, but there are numero gay-popular spots where you n meet LGBTQ travelers and lols.

THAILAND GAY TRAVEL

Jt unr 2 hours om Bangkok by r, Pattaya is a popular beach rort statn wh a few excellent hotspots for gay travelers. Don’t miss out on Thailand’s biggt New Year’s gay ftival, Whe Party Bangkok, which is also one of the largt LGBTQ gathergs the world.

Baan Souy Rort is one of the only official gay hotels Pattaya (of urse, straight people are also wele), and s staff n give you sir tips on the cy’s gay scene. Pattaya Pattaya is not only famo for s nightlife, also has two of Thailand’s most popular gay beach, Dongtan Beach and Jomtien Beach. Pattaya’s gay scene is alive and lourful, check out BoyzTown district for gay bars, massage shops, rtrants and acmodatn optns.

GAY THAILAND RORTS YOU HAVE TO STAY AT

Koh Phangan Koh Phangan is most famo for s Full Moon Parti that attract gay travellers om all around the world. Koh Samui Rort © Stephanie Krs/Flickr Koh Samui Koh Samui offers s gay travellers a more chilled, relaxed holiday atmosphere than s neighbour Koh Phangan. Then there’s Bangkok, the hectic, glor, crowd pal cy, known worldwi as one of the most gay-iendly ci on the pla.

It’s partly this reputatn of Bangkok’s that brgs gay travellers here drov – but what is the real suatn wh LGBT rights Thailand? Although there have been attempts to legalize gay marriage the past, they have always stalled (most recently 2014).

BANGKOK GAY NIGHTLIFE

There is a huge difference between the perceptn of the untry among gay tourists and the realy of the social suatn of LGBT rights Thailand.

GAY BANGKOK

Although the Tourism Board has actively urted gay tourism, reports have shown that LGBT groups face regular discrimatn. Many gay men and women hi their sexual orientatn at work as is felt lims their opportuni more ‘nventnal’ reers. A 2015 poll, rried out the same year the anti-discrimatn laws were fally passed, found that nearly 89% of Thais would accept LGBT lleagu, 80% would not md if a fay member was LGBT and 60% were favour of legalizg gay marriage.

GAY PHET

For gay travellers, they n go and have an amazg time whout worryg about the plex suatn for LGBT rights Thailand.

Asia’s gayt cy is a fast-paced phony of amazg food, iendly people and the wilst gay nightlife travellers are likely to experience.

For those lookg for a slightly more low-key optn (this uld be only very slightly), Pattaya offers great nightlife and gay beach, tropil Phet is somewhere to lie by the sea durg the day and dance on the beach all night; and of urse, there are plenty more geo beach and islands to hop around on that are more off the beaten track. For those travellers who prefer the mountas to the beach, Thailand’s send-biggt cy Chiang Mai the North has a spirual atmosphere and stunng scenery, although the gay scene is somewhat subdued. Generally speakg, Thailand there should be no problems wh fdg welg and fortable gay-iendly acmodatn the areas mentned above.

GAY THAILAND: THE ULTIMATE TRAVEL GUI

In Bangkok, there are naturally plenty of gay hotels and hostels, mostly near where the gay nightlife scene is.
