Soi Diana (Soi Lengkee)

Soi Diana, also called Soi Lengkee, links Second Road to Soi Buakhao in central Pattaya, in the Central Pattaya district. LK Metro branches off it. Tahitian Queen Rock and Roll, Mike Shopping Mall, Wonderland Beer Bar, Heng Kham, Five Star Bar and The Sportsman are close.

Beer bars and a few gogos, linking Second Road to LK Metro. It is a connecting soi rather than a destination of its own, lined with bars, restaurants and hotels. Most people pass along it on the way to LK Metro or Soi Buakhao, and stop for a drink on the way.

LK Metro branches off Soi Diana, so you can walk from one to the other in a couple of minutes. The L-shaped soi of gogos and beer bars is the main draw, and Soi Diana is the approach. If you start from Second Road, the walk is short.

Mike Shopping Mall is a landmark, and the soi has restaurants, hotels and the massage shop Heng Kham. Tahitian Queen Rock and Roll and The Sportsman are nearby for a drink. It is a handy corridor if you are staying central.

Yes. The beer bars and the few gogos on the soi make it a gentle warm-up, and you can leave when you are ready to walk to LK Metro. Wonderland Beer Bar and Five Star Bar are close, so you can choose by atmosphere.

Like beer bars elsewhere: you sit, order a beer and the women may chat or ask for a lady drink. If someone leaves with you, you pay the bar a fine and agree her own fee separately. A polite not tonight is always fine.

Soi Diana is a short connecting soi with beer bars and a few gogos, while Soi Buakhao is the long, busy strip with market stalls, massage shops and long-stay expats. They meet at one end, so many people use Soi Diana as the shortcut between Second Road and Soi Buakhao.

Use it as a warm-up: have a drink at a bar, look at the line-ups and walk on to LK Metro for the gogos. Settle your tab before you go, and tip small change. For current hours and prices, VIP members can look at the venue listing.
