Outstanding rocks, both literally and figuratively, in Thailand. Rocks and mountains are an area of interest of mine, I try to visit all of them. Aerial pictures by a friend's drone.
Khao Hua Muak เขาหัวหมวก
Nakon Nayok province 14.3375, 101.14369. This rock has only recently been developed for tourism, i.e. appeared on the internet only a few years ago. About 1 hour hike from nearby village.
From a certain angle it looks like a penis, with glans and balls.
Thung Hin Tern in Nakon Sawan
On google maps as "Field stone rampart สวนหินธรรมชาติทุ่งหินเทิน" 15.669, 99.548. Details see here: https://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2015/04/weird-stone-at-thung-hin-tern-in-nakon.html.
Hin Pad in Surat Thani
Hin Pad หินพัด จังหวัดสุราษฎร์ธานี 9.074, 98.8485.
Overlap stone in Koh Samui
9.46, 100.0297. On private property, entry 50 THB. Difficult to find and to reach, see comments on google maps. I haven't been yet, picture from internet.
The above are all rocks that are not connected to their base and have a long and short axis and stand on the long axis.
Here two cases where a rock is connected to its base, both at Pa Hin Ngam Nationalpark อุทยานแห่งชาติป่าหินงาม ชัยภูมิ in Chaiyaphum.
For more pictures and names how some got their names read here: From “Testicle Shrinking Cliff” To “Erect Penis Stone” https://learnthaiwithmod.com/2014/07/siamtulipfestival/.
Following examples of rocks whose axes are about the same length and not connected to their base.
Buddha's Footprint Khao Khitchakut รอยพระพุทธบาท เขาคิชฌกูฏ in Chanthaburi province.

Many more interesting rocks in general in Thailand, and rocks that look like a penis worldwide.
