Clinton Plaza

Clinton Plaza was a red light district in Bangkok, Thailand, located on Sukhumvit Road between Soi 13 and Soi 15.

The plaza began as a collection of beer bars in 1998; it was named after the former U.S. president Bill Clinton the following year, and go-go bars were added in 2000.

In 2001 the interior minister of Thailand, Purachai Piumsombun, started a campaign to enforce social order. This and contractual disputes related to redevelopment plans led to the closure of the area's bars by May 2003.
