Si Lom Subdistrict combines Bangkok’s corporate tempo with an older street-trading culture in a way that reflects its position in Bang Rak, east of the Chao Phraya River. Silom Road and nearby Sathon Road are lined with offices, hotels, malls and BTS stations, while narrow side streets retain food stalls and small businesses. Sri Maha Mariamman Temple on Silom Road, founded by Tamil Hindu immigrants in the late 19th century, is known locally as Wat Khaek and remains an active place of worship. After dark, Patpong’s entertainment streets add another layer to the district. Browse other webcams across Bangkok and the Chao Phraya basin to place this setting in a wider geographic context.
