The Erawan Museum The Erawan Elephant Museum

The Erawan Elephant Museum 🐘✨, the great landmark of Samut Prakan, is not only magnificent architecture, but is full of stories of Thai faith and culture.

The museum was built as a place to collect various antiquities, arts, and sacred things, as well as used as a spiritual symbol to link the sky, earth, and man together.

The "three-headed elephant" or "Erawan elephant" in Hindu mythology is the vehicle of Indra, which conveys greatness and protection, and is built as a huge memorial.

As a source of cultural arts learning, the museum is divided into three floors, like three worlds.

☁️ Ground floor = human world.

☀️ Middle class = He Sumeru

🌌. Upstairs = heaven.

From any angle, it is full of magnificence and value greater than beauty, so that it is not only a tourist attraction but also an embodiment of faith and a reminder to us of the artistic, cultural and spiritual roots of Thailand. 🙏พิพิธภัณฑ์ ช้างเอราวัณ
