Patpong Portraits: A Journey into the Heart of Bangkok's Nightlife

Patpong is a world unto itself. A labyrinth of neon lights, pulsating music, and exotic scents, it is a place where anything and everything is possible. It is also a place of great beauty and humanity, and it is this beauty that Chris Coles has captured in his stunning new book, Patpong Portraits.

Coles, a renowned travel and street photographer, has spent years photographing the people of Patpong. His portraits are intimate and revealing, offering a glimpse into the lives of the people who live and work in this vibrant district. There are portraits of bar girls and sex workers, of transgender performers and street vendors, of tourists and locals alike. Each portrait tells a story, and together they paint a vivid picture of life in Patpong.

Coles's photographs are not only beautiful, but they are also thought-provoking. They challenge our preconceptions about sex work and the people who engage in it. They show us that the people of Patpong are not simply victims or criminals, but complex individuals with their own hopes, dreams, and fears.

Patpong Portraits is a powerful and moving book that offers a unique perspective on one of the most misunderstood and stigmatized places in the world. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in photography, travel, or human rights.
