Well...it is however hard then to avoid "crowded places" as we are anyway heading to BKK/Thailand for our first time...
Sorry if I wasn't clear, but I didn't mean crowded tourist places. I meant that if they attached the most famous Buddhist shrine in Thailand, and they intended to do harm to Buddhists, or perhaps Chinese Buddhists as the case may be, then maybe avoid large Buddhist shrines.

That said, I personally would not avoid Erawan at all. It is a world heritage treasure IMHO.
