Clinton Plaza

Clinton Plaza is a red light district in Bangkok, Thailand. Believed to be named after Bill Clinton, the 42nd president of the United States of America. It is located on Sukhumvit Road between Soi 13 and Soi 15.

In 2001 the interior minister of Thailand, Purachai Piumsombun, started a campaign to enforce social order, including strict opening times for bars except in three designated night life areas, namely Patpong, RCA (Rama IX Road) and New Petchabury Road. Additionally there are plans for hotel construction, which will make the area close soon.
