Mobile ticket

Chamkamorn District takes us to the Russian Market and Olympic Stadium, and is home to a number of fine temples. However it is best known for the Genocide or Tuol Seng Museum.

This former high school built by the French had been from 1975 to 1979 the prison that was the most terrifying of the Khmer Rouge period. Called “S-21” by the Khmer Rouge, it was a torture center, where 15,000 people were tortured then sent to the extermination camp, Choeung Ek, to be killed. The prison guards were between 10 and 15 years old. They were indoctrinated by the seniors of Angkar, and became crueler than the adults.

We recommend this tour for people 16 years and over, due to the confronting nature of the Genocide Museum. Adults should use their discretion on the ability of their children to deal with this experience.
