Erawan Shrine

The Erawan Shrine is a Hindu/Buddhist shrine in Bangkok. It’s a popular tourism spot that houses the statue of four-faced Buddhist. Located just beside the Erawan shopping mall, the shrine is reachable by taking BTS Skytrain to Chidlom station.
I was there this morning (walked from my hotel), the place is much smaller than I expected. For the sake of worshiping, I had to buy some flower rings and candles which aren’t cheap.
Considering the fact that such a small area was flooded by so many tourists (and a lot of them area actually Chinese Malaysians), it was extreme smoky there. I didn’t really spend too much time there, just briefly took some pictures and left the place.
