Is the visa issued on arrival or do you need one before you go. If the wife insists on going then what are the requirements for a Thai to get a visa. And finally how safe is the place to wander around at night.

It was my first trip to PP (third to Cambodia) so I was pretty excited.

I must admit I saw many great shots without my camera and didn't get the same sort of luck with it.

First day I came out of the Olympic Stadium and spotted an interesting looking temple. As I got closer, the sky darkened and I had enough time to take 2 or 3 shots before turning round and heading back to avoid the incoming



I took this one later on, it just amused me the bike heading in the opposite direction to the rest of the traffic.





A few rugby players having a beer can cause people to stop.......



Same temple as pic 1, I went again the next day. There was thousands and thousnads of these 'things' drying on tarpaulins along the outside of the temple. They smelt almost fishy....no idea what they were.

To be honest, there was little there that is new to anyone who has read about this place or seen the documentaries, but it was still worth a trip.

The most amazing thing are some of the photographs. They are an amazing study of people, people who didn't know why they were there, people who knew what was going to happen....the photographer of many of them was a 16 year old boy (when he started) having been sent on a photography course in China.

There's not a great deal to photograh there, mainly just empty rooms with a few beds and the 'cells that were built in one of the buildings.

The introduction board at the front gate.



These were the torture rooms, there were 14 corpses left behind when the prison was evacuated in these rooms.







The cell block where they knocked through the whole length of the building and created cells approx 3 foot wide by 8 feet long.
