The mystical Erawan

Step into the world of Hindu mythology at the Erawan Museum, where legend comes to life as a colossal three-headed elephant. This structure honors Erawan, the sacred 33-headed white elephant of folklore, who carried God Indra between heaven and earth. Symbolizing virtuous action and prosperity, the museum spans three levels representing the Underworld, Earth, and Heaven. Here, you'll discover eastern antiques, religious iconography, and mesmerizing decor that bring ancient tales to vibrant life.

A cosmic journey

Begin your adventure at the Suvannabhumi level, marveling at rare artifacts like Chinese porcelain and Benjarong ceramics. Ascend to the Earth section, representing Mount Meru, where technicolor walls burst with artistic exuberance. Your journey peaks in the Tavatimsa Heaven, where art and spirituality blend in stunning Buddha images. After exploring these surreal displays, take a moment to wander through the museum's lush gardens, allowing the serenity of your surroundings to sink in.
