Erawan museum

When advancing toward the east on the Sukhumvit street, and advancing toward the direction of Samut Phrakan, a huge monument appears to the left side.
It is a statue of the elephant that has three heads.

At first I could not understand what this is. However around this statue there were the praying place and souvenir shops, so I thought it might be a valuable place.And I also prayed here.

Well, recently after having examined about it I found the detail of this statue. It was a museum of individual management!!!

I don't know why many people pray here. However I also have prayed here once :-) So I cannot complain to them (^^;

Anyway, please see here when getting tired of sightseeing in the center part in Bangkok.
To learn where the place is, please refer to the below picture shown by Google Maps.
