This is a beautiful area and the statue was very impressive, you can see it without paying the 400 baht entrance fee. I thought the price was a little high for what you get to see inside, they have cover ups for girls to wear to go inside the structure. There are some cool statues around the grounds, and also since the price is a little high, that means there are fewer people inside, making it more peaceful. Also there's a free shuttle service at the main exit to the nearest BTS line so take advantage of that too.

Got the tickets. Went in and there's sign board saying you can't enter if you do not have proper dressing. We wore sleeveless. Not able to enter. It'll be nice if the ticketing man advises us instead of selling the ticket to us.

We discovered this place through internet. Once we were approaching the site, our eyes were quickly caught by the huge three headed elephant statue. It is a Hindu God figure named the Erawan weighing 150 tonnes and is 50m in height. We understand that this museum took almost 10 years from conception to completion of construction. No wonder the architecture was so amazing. The museum having three levels is housed inside the belly of the elephant. There were two huge dragons winding up along each side of the staircase leading up to the museum. It displayed many Asian antiques for people's admiration. Apart from the museum, the garden is another place not to be missed. There was motion sensor system under many elephant statues. Walking around them triggered the sensor and the elephants roared. Funny.

Interesting place to learn about how elephants are important to Thai people. The main building is very beautiful, heavily ornamented on the inside. The audio guide is however a bit too generic and not really that helpful for me to understand the exhibits.

An interesting museum that tries to blend religions into one single site if appreciation/worship. Nice architecture and creative religious concept which is rare to find in any typical SE Asian tourist spot.
