Wat Arun, all of 85 meters tall, is among the most impressive. The Erawan Museum is probably one of the most idiosyncratic museum buildings of the world, as it has (partly) the shape of a three-headed elephant. The museum houses a fine collection of religious objects and antiquities. The MBK Centre, an eight-story marble shopping mall, is a temple for the modern consumer society.
