It's my birthday. As a gift, S offers to help me locate the penis shrine. I didn't have any luck the last time I went looking for the place, but S manages to find it hidden behind the Swissôtel, not far from a loading dock where a couple of the kitchen staff are carving ice sculptures with a chain saw.
The penises, hundreds of them tied with bows or draped with necklaces, are stacked in big shameless piles next to the canal. The origins of the shrine are murky. It seems to have been the creation of a Thai businessman who used to own the property back in the early years of the 20th century.
Besides the carved penises that come in a variety of styles and sizes, visitors have left behind all sorts of offerings: bowls of fruit, bottles of red Fanta soda, and even a few elegant silk dresses in plastic dry cleaning bags hung from the banyan trees. I read that the shrine is dedicated to Chao Mae Tuptim, an ancient tree spirit who specializes in human reproduction. A good number of the folks who visit the shrine are couples hoping to get pregnant.
S and I spend a while in this little garden of penises. Once we've gotten the dumb jokes out of our system, I begin to appreciate the loveliness of the spot, and the earnestness of all these phalluses, each one a little prayer.

With the move to Nai Lert Park Heritage home, there has been a significant downgrade in the amount of phalluses. I visited 13 years ago and my wife was pregnant the month after the trip, coincidence maybe. Fun story to tell definitely
I wouldn’t visit again as it all seems a bit “flaccid” now

This is in the hotel compound. The Lingam worship is of Hindu tradition. The females come here to worship to get pregnant.

This is only a small shrine featuring a few stone penises, if you are a believer or follower of the Goddess Tubtim i'm sure it is for you, if you aren't, don't bother. As, it is in the grounds of a hotel, and not something thats really for tourists.

Tubtim Shrine
Shrine of Goddess Tubtim (also called Penis Shrine) in Bangkok, Thailand is a bizarre place of worship for believers who pay regards the goddess Chao Mae Tuptim or Tubtim. Tuptim is believed to be a spirit living in woods to bless those who worship her. The place is also called Phallus Shrine, Phallic Shrine or Tubtim Shrine. It was established in 1920s as a spirit house to protect the property from supernatural beings. Soon it became a place of worship for girls and women who were searching boys for friendship or marriage or women who wanted pregnancy. Women visit this shrine when they are trying to conceive, leaving offerings of lotus and jasmine alongwith small wooden or stone penis down the feet of goddess Tuptim. It is located behind the Swissôtel Bangkok hotel near the bank of the Khlong Saen Saep. In Thailand, the phallus (penis) is considered a symbol of good luck and also a representative of fertility.

We found the shrine quite easily, we were escorted to the sight and offered incense to burn. However it is clearly a relocated site that does not have the interest of the previous location. Maybe in years to come it might.

Just a small house of spirits with few falic motives, not very valuable for the difficulty to find it. Furthermore is located on a private custodiate place, so you probably should visit the shine with the guardian supervision.

Been there 10 years ago at the original location behind Nai Lert Park Hotel and it was really an interesting sight with hundreds or maybe even thousands of phallus symbols devoted by visitors over decades and weather beaten over time. The moved shrine looks totally artificial now at its new location with few phalluses remaining and no charme at all. Absolutely not woth visiting anymore.

Recommend taking Som Khit Alley to find the shrine. Its just off the road across the small bridge to the right.
Wireless Road path is blocked with construction.
Lady at the nearby gift shop said most of the wooden offerings were buried after Swisshotel sold the land for redevelopment.
There's only a half dozen of the stone pricks left at its relocated site.
Doesn't measure up to its old location.

A group of visiting (female) friends wanted to go to the Shrine for auspicious fertility. After breakfast at Embassy, we made our way to the location shown on googlemaps, only to find a closed road and construction site.
Disappointed, We back tracked a bit and asked the security at Nai Lert heritage home, to be told that the shrine had been moved there.
I think a majority of the "items" have not been moved, but enough for a little prayer, a little picture and at least my friends were happy to have seen it (still waiting for results on the effect of the shrine 👶🏻)
Interesting stop if you're nearby. Bring flower wreath/garland as offering if you wish to do so.

Re: penis shrine. Do you know what are the days it is open and what are the hours it is open?
