Discover the bizarre cave in Thailand completely full of carved wooden penises.

Footage shows hoards of tourists stopping by the cave to wonder at the phallic shrine found inside, thought to bring fertility to those who leave offerings.

The cave, on the east side of the Railay Bay, is famous for its wonderful stalactites and stalagmites. Since ancient times, Phra Nang (Princess) Cave has been where fishermen, before going out to sea, have made offerings to the symbolic Phallus of Shiva known as the Siwaleung or Palad Khik in Thai.

According to the hotel site where the filmer stayed, some fishermen do still come here to make offerings to the princess but that the number is shrinking. I don’t know what to think of this cave.

The clip was filmed in February 2018.
