Lots of emotions visiting this site. Actually there isn't much to see, but you learned a lot thanks to the audioguide, which is excellent. This visit is to be combined with the genocide museum, to understand the full extend of the Khmers Rouge horrors. The admission fee is a bit high (5USD), but I would recommend it to anyone interested... More

It's hard to believe that as recently as 1975-79 some 2million people were slaughtered by their fellow Cambodians in a period of madness undertaken by Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge forces.The 'killing fields' 15km outside Phnom Penh is the area that prisoners were taken to be executed after interrogation and torture at the Tuol Sleng prison in town itself....

Now a quiet, reflective area which acts as a memorial to almost 9,000 people killed between 1975/78. Take time to watch the short video before walking around using the excellent audio guides.

If you never been to any holocaust memorial place in Poland, this will be quite an eye opening experience.

I would just visit the genocide museum instead. Nothing really to see besides the stupa that has bones and skulls in it. Without the audio guide given to you its just a field to be blunt with a sad history

It's very well set up to educate you on a devasting period in the country's history. Small site makes it easy to move round and the listening sets are excellent but be prepared for much sadness. One trip is probably not enough to take in the full enormity of what happened.

The audio guide was helpful and offered in multiple languages. There was something about physically being there and seeing the magnitude of the genocide that was moving. We were glad we went out.

This place provides so much insight into what happened and where. The USD5 entry fee provides you with an audio tour which you can do at your own pace. It is very objective and informative. Despite the atrocities carried out here, it is surprisingly quiet - perhaps that is because everyone is listening to their headphones intently. Take water and... More
