In between Rock Hard A Go Go and Ocean Shopping Center you can find the Simon Shopping Center. Some stores are available as well as some Internet service. But the place really comes to life in the evenings when the Muay Thai shows starts. This is not exactly the most professional boxers around but they always put on a fight for the crowd. There are of course lots of places to sit around the many bars around the boxing ring.

There is no cover charge for the boxing show but it's recommended that you buy drinks if you want to sit down and enjoy the boxing. After each fight, the boxers will walk around and shake hands with the spectators and collect tips. You can also have your picture taken with one of them for a small fee. There is also a daily snake show to keep you interested. The show starts at 9.30pm and goes on until after midnight.

   In the same complex you will find an A Go Go bar. The combination of violent boxing and an A Go Go bar seems to be working. If you want some change, just sneak into Eros and enjoy the slightly more expensive drinks. When that bores you, just sneak outside again to the boxing. Chances are, you'll never want to leave!
