Review & FAQ:

The Erawan Museum is located in Bang Muang Mai and situated in one of the most peculiar places – inside a massive three-headed elephant. Visitors will begin their journey through gardens that are filled with statues of Thai’s mythical creatures before climbing an intricately carved stairway lined with opulent pillars that are three stories high. The interior showcases a beautiful stained-glass ceiling leading into one of the heads, which features ancient Buddha statues and a temple. Below the ground there is a museum displaying Thai pottery created by Lek Viriyaphant, the same person who built the Ancient Siam Park and the Sanctuary of Truth. The artist was dedicated to preserving Thai arts and cultures for future generations to enjoy.
