Bhutanese penis page
The people of Bhutan frequently decorate the outsides of their houses and shops with a variety of images - tigers, 
dragons, birds, and so on.  One of the most common themes is the decorative penis which is said to protect the building.
These often come as a pair of mirror image phalluses.
In the spirit of thematic travel, here is a sampler of the penis art we encountered in our travels.  
In addition to painted penises, there are a variety of carved penises that dangle from the eves of homes.
