The Erawan Museum is a showcase of the spirit of Asia, where the essence of arts and four major religions have been preserved. The museum's name, Erawan, means rain, raincloud, and rainbow, reflecting the myth that Indra would ride the Erawan Elephant and bestow rain upon the earth.
The Erawan Museum is divided into three levels, representing the underworld, the human earth, and heaven. The third level, located inside the elephant's body, is heaven. The museum's lowest level or the underground is called Suvarnabhumi, and the second level is the human earth.
