The Famous Iconic Erawan Shrine In Bankok

Many locals and tourists are very familiar with the Erawan Shrine located at 494 Ratchadamri Rd, Pathum Wan. The Shrine was built in 1956 and was ever since so popular as it was said to ward off bad luck for a hotel that was built nearby. People from will travel from east Asia and China to visit this Hindu Shrine with gifts for people who believed thR they have been blessed. You will also see vendors selling flower garlands and wooden elephants tk offer as blessing outside the Erawan Shrine. But you can also buy offerings from the Shrine itself too! If you are interested to visit this Shrine, its best to come really early or anytime after 9pm, as the Shrine gets really crowded and at times the walkway around the Shrine are blocked with people too! To get to this Shrine, just alight via BTS at Chit Lom Statipn and it is a short 5min walk to this Shrine located at the corner of Ratchadamri Rd. #passionpassport #touristsattraction #attraction #temple #mustvisit #bangkok #thailand #thingstodo #urbanexplorer #history #iconic #monument
