Everybody loves to about Bangkok traffic.
Now you can watch it in real-time from anywhere in the world.
I stumbled onto this while surfing for new links today:
http://gvd-tech.thhost.com/live.html (GVD-TECH :: live Bangkok traffic webcams)
If you click on #1, you'll see 'ground zero' in Bangkok; Victory Monument.
Link #50 takes you near Hua Lam Phong, the central Bangkok train station.
Link #62 shows an amazingly clear view of the very popular Khao San Road!
Link #68 is also very cool; overlooking the Rama VIII Bridge.
And if you click on #24, you'll see a link to Sukhumvit 71 Road - where I live.
Click on VGA on the left margin for a full-screen shot.
PS: the links in the navigation bar are in Thai, but don't let that stop you from clicking around a little!
PS 1: if you get a popup prompting you to install Active X Camera Control, go ahead and do it; it's not a virus.
PS 2: If the video is really blury, that means it's probably raining here!
PS 3: Like all streaming video websites, sometimes the server is up, and sometimes it's down.
If you can't get a connection, try again tomorrow!
While I'm at it, 2 more live cams just for fun:

If you don't have Axis Active X Camera Control software on your 'puter, you can download it for free here:

And here are some cute streaming videos from a Thai school that do not require any special software:

And finally, a link to Radio Bangkok Online, hosted by ThaiVisa.com:

Almost like being here! |
