The Inspiration of Elephant
The elephant is a symbol of royalty in Thailand, and as Bangkok is the country’s capital city this powerful and splendid animal represents the capital as seat of power.
That reference to ‘seat of power’ is also relevant to the fact that Kings of Siam for hundreds of years rode into battle atop the most powerful elephant available to the King.
The elephant, represents an auspicious and revered symbol of power, pride and privilege for Bangkok and Thailand.
