Description:
An active shrine in a congested part of the city, located next to the Grand Hyatt Erawan and so often packed with people paying respects to the Brahma. There’s a small, traditional orchestra and conventional Thai dancers who will perform for a fee. Although more modern than most of Bangkok’s shrines, Erawan has been restored a couple of times: firstly when the new Grand Hyatt replaced the old Erawan Hotel in 1991; then again in 2006, after a crazed man smashed the statue. Sadly, he came to a grisly end, beaten to death by onlookers outside.
