A government-designated entertainment zone in Ratchada area. Long a popular clubbing, pubbing and live music spot, RCA or Royal City Avenue is a favourite with Thais but plenty of visitors to Bangkok nightlife likewise make it to the location a bit north of other city-centre entertainment areas. In recent years RCA has added a cinema, bowling and other activities to the mix.
RCA is in the Ratchada area, approximately 17 minutes from Novotel Bangkok Silom Road.
