During my stay in Cambodia my family were keen to have a look at the infamous Genocide Museum at Phnom Penh which isn't for the faint hearted by a long shot. I found the place historically intresting but no doubt shocking.
I cant not remember how much tickets were to visit but they were very cheap and you could take an optional Cambodian guide for a fair price, we didn't take a tour guide but later on we wished we did because these guys made the tour round the Museum a lot more detailed and defiantley worth the price they were offering.
I'll start with building A:
All the signs were written in English and Khmer.
The first part of the building I entered was full of photos of the prisoners that had stayed in the prison. The photos were quite eerie in all honesty! Just looking at the aging walls made me really feel for these poor souls knowing that they'd been in the same building not so long ago. And that is the scariest thing about the place, it wasn't so long ago that these terrible happenings took place.
After we'd seen all the photos in the first few rooms there were some display cabinets full of clothes the prisoners wore whilst staying inside the prison and a photo of how they were found before being put inside the cabinet.
There were also some smaller rooms inside this part of the museum and all the rooms looked the same shape and size, two rooms had a torture bed with the shackles still attached.
