Bangkok vs Prague

Bangkok

Bangkok has a tropical climate that is hot year-round. There are three seasons: hot, rainy, and cool. Even the "cool" season rarely dips below 25°C. Humidity is consistently high.

Prague

Prague has a continental climate with warm summers and cold, sometimes snowy winters. Spring and autumn are pleasant but changeable. The city looks magical in every season — sun-drenched summer evenings and snow-dusted spires both have their charm.

Bangkok

Bangkok's traffic is legendary — avoid road transport during rush hour (7–9am, 5–8pm) when possible. The BTS Skytrain and MRT subway are fast and reliable for routes they cover. For everything else, motorcycle taxis and river boats fill the gaps.

Walkability: Low overall due to heat, uneven sidewalks, and missing pedestrian infrastructure. However, individual areas like the Old City temple district, Sukhumvit between BTS stations, and Chinatown are walkable if you tolerate the heat. Elevated walkways connect many BTS stations to nearby malls.

Prague

Prague has excellent public transit operated by DPP (Dopravni podnik Prahy). The metro, trams, and buses all use the same ticket. A 30-minute ticket costs 30 CZK and a 24-hour pass costs 120 CZK. Buy tickets from machines at metro stations or use the PID Litacka app.

Walkability: Prague's historic center is very walkable and best explored on foot. The core (Old Town, Mala Strana, Josefov) is compact — you can walk from Old Town Square to Prague Castle in about 25 minutes. Cobblestones are everywhere so wear comfortable shoes.
