There were 2 places to visit. The 1st was the museum of pottery with historical facts and legends. This museum was dark, gloomy, musty, low ceiling which I didn’t quite fancy and wished I didn’t go in. If you’re alone, skip it. The 2nd was within the huge elephant statue you see as you walk in. That was cool. You are required to remove your footwear to go in. Once you reach the main door, you will see a beautiful and intricately crafted staircase to the top. At the top, you will find another mini spiral staircase to your left and a lift to your right. Both will take you up to a beautiful shrine/worship area. If you’re not into confined spiral staircases, use the lift. Once you’re done with the museum, you can sit by the gardens by the fountains and enjoy some greenery and serenity or head to the restaurants for food/drinks. It was a nice experience except for that gloomy bit.

This museum is open until 19:00, so if you have time in the afternoon it's a good chance to see something beautiful. Take the BTS, not to waste time in traffic jams (quite cold inside the train due to air conditioners, be ready to the contrast with the temperature outside). The adult entrance tickets are 400 bhat, which is higher, than indicated at trip advisor. The place is surrounded by the beautiful garden with statues and gives you the feeling of tranquility in the evening, when there are almost no visitors. No short and open clothes are allowed inside (and take off shoes). The museum is lighted inside, so even when it gets dark you are still able to see the beauty of the decorations inside.

The biggest draw (literally) is the massive three-headed elephant that is the image of this place. This place is small, but the history behind it is pretty neat (read it online not at the place). It also is surrounded by elephants that have motion sensors to trumpet call when you walk through their legs. At the top of the museum is a small temple-esk area with many Buddha statues, some of which they don't allow pictures to be taken because of the damage it can cause the statues. Really neat place, but biggest draw is really the GIGANTIC elephant that can be seen from afar just as easily as up close.

Für das was dort geboten wird, ist der Eintritt einfach zu teuer. Hunderte Chinesen werden dort mit Touristenbussen angekarrt. Vernünftige Fotos zu machen, ist fast unmöglich.
