Bangkok Pride Parade brought together thousands of people

Thousands have marched in Bangkok's Pride parade, which has grown to become one of the biggest such LGBTQ+ celebrations in Asia.

It's an annual explosion of color, joy and diversity, and the first since Thailand legalized same-sex marriage in January.

The celebrations are part of Pride Month, which is celebrated across the world.

The Thai government says the festival supports human rights, gender equality and the acceptance of gender diversity. The country's Prime Minister, Paetongtarn Shinawatra, also attended this year's event.
