Live Webcams in Bangkok

Bangkok, Thailand’s capital and Southeast Asia’s great engine of noise, is at its most watchable after dark, and the live webcams in Bangkok know it: the busy sois off Sukhumvit Road, with tuk-tuks nosing through the traffic, food carts setting up on the pavement and the bar fronts filling from early evening until the small hours. It is street life rather than skyline, and it never quite stops. Krung Thep, as Thais call the city, keeps Indochina Time, UTC+7, with no daylight saving, so a European lunchtime is Bangkok’s evening rush and a British midnight is the last of the night. The city sits on the delta of the Chao Phraya, barely 1.5 metres above sea level on average, which explains both the canals and the floods. November to February is the cool, dry window; April is the hottest month, and Songkran turns the streets into a water fight.
