In 1955, The Union of Thai Hotel and Tourism Company, the founder of the Erawan Hotel was told by Luang Suwichanphaet, who is an expert in Astrology that the moment of laying the hotel foundation stone was not really right auspicious moment. And it must be corrected by building the Shine of of Thao Maha Brahma (four-faced Brahma) and a spirit house in the Erawan hotel area. Therefore the Thao Maha Brahma Shrine and a spirit house were built as the reccommendation in 1954. Many people came to the shrine to offer flower garlands, lotus, goldleaf, incense and candles, to ask for a wish. In the shrine area, there are Thai dance troupes often features performances, who are hired by worshippers in return for seeing their prayers at the shrine answered.
Note : The price of flower garlands, goldleaf, incense and candles sold in front of the shrine is much expensive than inside the shrine area.
