🏛️ Erawan Museum, Thailand - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)

Three-Headed Elephant – Erawan Museum, Samut Prakan, Thailand

This massive bronze statue of Erawan, the three-headed elephant from Hindu mythology, is the highlight of the Erawan Museum near Bangkok. At 43.6 meters tall, it houses the museum itself across three symbolic levels: the underworld, earth, and heaven.

Tips:
- Easily reached via BTS Skytrain (Chang Erawan station).
- Visit the upper hall inside the elephant for stunning Buddhist art.
- Respectful attire recommended.
- Explore the lush gardens and outdoor sculptures too.
- Great photo spot—especially from below the elephant!



📍 Location in Erawan Elephant Museum, 99/9, Sukhumvit Road, Bang Mueang Mai Subdistrict, Samrong Nuea Subdistrict Municipality, Mueang Samut Prakan District, Samut Prakan Province, 10270, Thailand
