Speaking of Thaniya 2, in your
post on the That First Time thread, you mentioned that
"My first time sex in Thailand must have been about 1970, I was a very young man. I was staying at the Suriwong Hotel in Patpong, Bangkok having been advised that that was the place to stay for “that sort of thing”. My question is whether the Twilight Bar was still on Thaniya 2 at that point. As noted in the History of Soi Twilight thread and elsewhere, the Twilight Bar's originally opened on Thaniya 2 in 1966 before moving to Soi Pratuchai "in the early 1970s". Pinning-down the date for its move, and thus the beginning of Soi Twilight, is proving tough. If it was no longer there when you stayed at the Suriwong Hotel, then we are much closer to establishing the year of its move.
