Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum

Unclaimed

extremely informative highly recommended the audio tour, super heavy content. i was never taught about this genocide in school and after coming here and learning more about it i can’t believe it isn’t talked about more. two survivors were actually selling their book when we went as well, getting to meet them was both surreal and emotional. super amazing men, thankful to have had the experience i did.

If you come to Phnom Penh, please come here. It’s a very heartbreaking place. You can feel the cruelty of the Khmer Rouge. The staff were very friendly. Please give it a go with the audio guide. It’s worth every penny. The history and the stories of all the victims, you can feel their suffering coming here. Please support, the victims by buying their books. It only cost $10 per book. Please prepare yourself before coming here. Praying to all the victims and the victims’ families. May all the souls rest in peace.

Very educational museum to learn about the khmer rouge. Highly recommend doing this first before killing fields. Also recommend getting the audio guide as there won’t be much reading information, apart from some of the temporary exhibits. Mostly indoor but no AC so a fan would be handy. It’s $10 with the audio guide and $5 if you opt out of audio guide.

You will require a heavy heart to understand the incidents that had happened previously. If there is a need, you can take a rest before continuing the other parts of the story. Strongly recommend to rent the audio guide. Also, managed to bought a book of a survivor of the genocide.

A must if you are in Phnom Penh. Very powerful and well done. The audio tour was great. I recommend giving yourself a lot of time, there is a lot to take in. I HIGHLY recommend the audio tour. It allows for you to take breaks and has extra content available.
