Thailand The Erawan Museum, Bangkok
This museum and temple is a bit off the beaten path for the average tourist, but makes a fantastic photo opportunity, with many unique views both inside out, including the surrounding gardens.
Photography Tips
A super-wide angle lens will come in handy, probably wise to bracket exposures as well, since the incoming light is very strong compared to the interior.
Travel Information
I've been here twice and still haven't found the official parking (if there is such a thing). As a tourist, you probably shouldn't be driving in Bangkok anyways. There is a Metro station fairly close, but honestly, just take a taxi to spare yourself walking through the heat.
I visited during Covid times, so nearly had the entire place to myself. Not sure how crowded it will be as tourism gets back to normal, but recommend a morning visit to avoid "people pollution." Opens 9 AM.
