Photogenic museums in Thailand

🌳Highlights of the museum ・The giant elephant (Erawan)🐘 This is the highlight! The three-headed "Erawan" is so big and impressive that you can see its head on the way to this place💯 lol It weighs 250 tons in total...👀 According to my research, as a fan of mythology, Erawan was the name of a man who served Indra, the god of weather, and he had the ability to transform into a "giant elephant", and in that form the gods of heaven called him the "Erawan Elephant"💭 It is said that Indra brought rain to the earth and prevented drought by riding on the Erawan Elephant☁️ It is interesting to know such a little story, isn't it🤭 ・The impressive stained glass The earth is represented in four colors: yellow, white, red, and blue (→ earth, wind, fire, water) The 12 constellations are drawn on the outside! ・Beautiful sculptures The interior decoration incorporates the traditional Thai Benjarong technique, and is beautiful in every detail✨ ・The top floor represents heaven The top floor has a quiet atmosphere, and the blue ceiling that evokes the sun, planets, and the Milky Way is impressive💫 ・Basement The basement displays the history of construction and Thai art. I wondered how such a building was built... and it seems that it was built with a lot of money👀 ・Garden The museum is surrounded by greenery that resembles the forest of the Himalayas in ancient mythology! The statues of mythical animals are also beautiful✨ ⚠️・You cannot enter in clothes that expose a lot of skin. You can rent a sarong, so please use it or put on a jacket! 📍Location: Bang Muang Mai, Mueang Samut Prakan District, Samut Prakan 10270 #FuriTabi #Thailand #ErawanMuseum
