Description:

No visit to Phnom Penh can bypass the Tuol Sleng Museum (museum of genocide). The former high school classrooms became a prison. Twenty thousand people passed through here to the killing fields. The few who survived were needed to maintain machinery that the Khmer Rouge could not and were the only ones left to tell the story of horror. Entrance fee is USD $2. Open daily, except Mondays, 8-11:30am and 2-5pm.
