On our second day in Phnom Penh we bore witness to the extreme evil that permeated Cambodia from 1975 to 1979 by the Khmer Rouge. First at the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum. This museum is on the grounds of the prison camp where thousands of Cambodians were beaten and tortured….
Mug shots of the innocent and unlucky..

We then visited the Killing Fields at Choeung Ek. It was devastating.
Skulls unearthed when the Killing Fields were discovered – we’re told that 17,000 people were killed here.
