Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum

The prison museum is located south of Phnom Penh, a former high school school used as a concentration camp for prisoners in the Bobo era. It had imprisoned more than 17,000 intellectuals, civilians, women and children, and tortured to death every day, until the Hengshan Forest regime invaded Phnom Penh in 1979, leaving only 14 bodies and seven survivors in the camp. The displays of torture and introductions are gruesome. Documentary films are also shown every day at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

The humiliation of Cambodia's history, where many intellectuals were held by the aggressors, was originally a secondary school, but now a museum, let the country forget the national shame, there are many written materials.

They were trucked there and usually killed that day. But as the paranoia of the Khmer Rouge leaders grew, because the revolution wasn't working, it much of been subversion from the inside so the revolution turned on its self and anyone else suspected of anti revolution zeal. At one time 300 people were being murdered in a day, beaten to death with farming tools, throats slashed, hammers .
