Скачать или смотреть Inside Thailand's Colossal 3-Headed Elephant: A Map of the Universe

A colossal 3-headed elephant, weighing 250 tons, stands guard just outside Bangkok. But this is not an ancient relic. It is a modern marvel—a museum built inside the body of a mythological god-elephant, designed to be a map of the cosmos.

Welcome to Mythic Mundi. In this episode, we journey into the heart of the Erawan Museum, a breathtaking monument born from the vision of one man, Lek Viriyaphan, who sought to preserve the stories of a nation.

Join us as we explore the three powerful stories held within this bronze wonder:

🐘 *The Vision:* The ambitious dream to build a bridge between the present and the past, blending ancient art with modern engineering.
🌊 *The Myth:* The ancient legend of Erawan (or Airavata), the celestial vehicle of Indra, born from the great Churning of the Ocean of Milk.
🌌 *The Cosmos:* We ascend through the museum’s three symbolic levels—from the Underworld (Suvarnabhumi), through the Human World (Earth), and into the Tavatimsa Heaven, all held within the belly of the elephant.

This is more than a museum; it's a journey through art, culture, and mythology made tangible.
