The Erawan Museum

🇹🇭I've been playing in Bangkok for a week, and this is my favorite place~ The Erawan Museum It's the kind of place that will make you go 'wow' as soon as you walk in. - 💛The ticket price on site is 400 baht, but it's a bit cheaper for foreigners, you can book it online for 50-60R. - The best time for taking photos is from 16 to 17 o'clock, the only downside is that there is no air conditioning inside, the day we went was cool, otherwise it would be a bit like a steamer. - ❤️Outfit suggestions: Any color that matches with pink is super suitable, such as light blue, white, silver, light gold. A flowing long skirt will add more beauty~ - 🚌Transportation: 221,99/9, Tambon Bang Muang Mai, Amphoe Mueang Samut Prakan, Chang Wat Samut Prakan Take the BTS Sukhumvit line to Chang Erawan station exit 2, it's about a 10-minute walk. - ❤️Photo angles: 1⃣The classic front entrance, wide angle, can accommodate more space, the photo is super shocking 2⃣The stairs on the left and right sides are symmetrical, you can take a top-down shot from anywhere, one side is pink, the other side is white, both are beautiful 3⃣Take a shot from the stairs to the ceiling, this dome is just too beautiful for words 4⃣There are also many angles outside, as long as it's in the sunlight, any shot will be beautiful

When it comes to this Three-Headed Elephant Museum (also known as the Pink Temple), as a Chinese, I should be proud again. Both here and the 72 Prefecture Scenic Area (Ancient City of Siam, will be introduced in detail later) are from the hands of Mr. Lin Guohua, a Thai-Chinese. Although it is called a museum, the exquisite architecture and the majestic momentum are far beyond ordinary museums. Sitting in the car, you can see a huge circular pink building and a three-headed elephant sitting on the building from a distance! The exhibition area on the first floor is not allowed to take pictures, all of which are part of the cultural relics collected by Mr. Lin in Thailand. By the way, if you have been to Pattaya and seen a black temple with pure wooden mortise and tenon structure, that also belongs to him. Following the stairs upwards, the second floor represents the world, and the third floor represents heaven. Everywhere you look, every brick, stone, wood, and mirror has its own changes, especially the entire circular roof, which is the map of the entire world. Under the universal sky, we are all one family!

Unlike many traditional Thai temples, this temple museum is pink from the inside out, and there is a giant three-headed elephant on the main building. We flew to Bangkok just for this temple! 📝Tips: 1️⃣. Shorts, short skirts, and suspenders are not allowed indoors. If you wear them, free shawls and sarongs will be provided. While ensuring beauty, you also need to abide by local customs and culture. 2️⃣. Shoes must be taken off before entering the temple. 3️⃣. It is recommended to wear white, pink, or red long skirts. 4️⃣. The whole building is equivalent to 14 floors high. The three-story building represents the underworld, the human world, and heaven. The three-headed elephant is the mount of the Buddha. There is no air conditioning on the first floor, and it is very hot. There is air conditioning on the second and third floors, and it is very cool. 5️⃣. It is a 15-minute drive from the nearby Ancient Siam. It is convenient to download the Grab or Boots taxi app. 📍Erawan Museum 📍Address: 99/9, 1st District, Bang Muang Mai Province, Samut Prakan ⏰Hours: Monday to Sunday, 9:00 am to 7:00 pm 🎫Tickets: THB 400 for adults, THB 200 for children

Especially the Three-Headed Elephant Museum, when I first saw it, I thought how could there be such a pink elephant museum, until I really went to visit, it was indescribable, beautiful and beautiful, a wonderful place full of art and religious atmosphere. 🕍It is actually a private museum, built by a rich businessman over more than ten years. The most eye-catching is the "Three-Headed Elephant" pure copper statue weighing 250 tons and 16 stories high. It has an oriental charm and displays the exquisite beauty of Thai and Asian cultural relics. The entire museum is divided into "M World", "Human World" and "Heaven".

The continuity effect. Elephants, as the mascots of Thailand, are escorting at the end of the pool. 🕌There is an incense place in front of each Buddha statue, you can freely take incense from the small box, and put it into the merit box. The square in front of the elephant and the outside of the door can place holy objects, flowers and elephant mascots. 🕙Tour time: 1 and a half hours 👉There are 3 floors in the museum, you can go upstairs, the online climbing is a bit steep.

Before stepping on the steps, you need to take off your shoes to show respect and piety. The entire museum is like a palace of art, every detail is a masterpiece, it is dazzling. Through the earth painting composed of colored glass, it shows the art forms of the West and the East, making people feel like they are in heaven. ⚠️Note: Don't wear revealing clothes, the bag can be stored at the entrance where someone is watching. It is recommended to go early if you want to watch the museum without people. 🏬There are many museum specialty products in the cultural and creative shop at the door, the price is fair and reasonable, suitable for buying souvenirs. 🚇Travel: You can take the Sukhumvit Line to Chang Erawan Station and then walk there. 🎫Tickets: 50RMB can be purchased on site or booked in advance on the website 🏚️The ticket collection point is a row of small houses on the right hand side as soon as you enter the door, and you can show your passport. 🕙Business hours: 9:00- 18:00 every day The latest admission time: 17:00 🙏This new Bangkok art resort, not only can appreciate traditional Thai culture, but also feel the mysterious atmosphere of religion.

#thingstodo Erawan Museum is a must-visit place in Bangkok, though it might be a bit far from the usual tourist spots from Bangkok, I guarantee that it’s very much worth your time. I can also say you might regret not coming here especially if you are into architecture and interior details. From the exterior color to the majestic detailing of the interiors, everything about this museum screams whimsical! I actually did not realize this at first but you can go inside the elephant structure at the top. How could you pass up the opportunity to be inside the belly of the elephant? Although what you see might be very fairy tale-like, the whole temple grounds is considered to be sacred. The museum is divided into 3 levels: the basement (exhibition), 1st floor, and the elephant belly which symbolizes heaven. The stairway at the 1st floor is creaky haha, I definitely took my time going up. Once we were at the belly of the elephant, I still can’t believe I’m inside it. Haha. I was really super curious how it was constructed and where are the structural supports as the belly is also hollow and doesn’t show any structural support inside. I super enjoyed this visit more than I thought I would. Shoes aren’t allowed inside and I believe individual photos of the Gods inside the belly aren’t allowed, so please be careful. One is supposed to be quiet and respectful once inside the belly. #tripblazers #bkk #thailand #travel #bangkok #daytrip #vacation #erawanmuseum #elephant
