Thaniya: The hub of golf shopping and Japanese nightlife Thaniya, named after Thaniya road, is the hub of golf shopping and Japanese nightlife. The latter, however, tends to be most known for. During the day, Thaniya Plaza, a commercial building on Thaniya road is mobbed by golfers. Here, golfers can shop countless hours from store to store. During the night when the golfing stores begin to close, the entire road wakes up for the arrival of the Japanese. Most are expatriates who, instead of heading home after work, would hang out with their friends till late night. A social practice they also perform in Japan. With almost 200 bars, pubs, and restaurants, Thaniya is their second home. Some socialize here so frequently that their home becomes just a place to sleep. (Besides, shopping in Thaniya Plaza during the weekend!) This area is one of the "most Japanese" in Thailand. Thaniya has an uncommon nature you can hardly find anywhere in Bangkok. It is the hubs of golf shopping during the day and Japanese nightlife during the night. Nowhere else in Bangkok can be a hub day and night like Thaniya. Note Nightlife in Thaniya means Japanese. Any non-Japanese may feel uncomfortable upon entering pubs and bars here. It is common that some places may pay less attention to the non-Japanese customers. Go to Patpong for nightlife, only 5 minutes away by foot.
Thaniya Plaza, the hub of golf shopping, is connected by a bridge with BTS Saladaeng skytrain station.
These neon lights are no different from what you can see in Japan.
