Choeung Ek Genocidal Center

It is truly terrifying stories while I was visiting for three hours. When I listened with the audio aid device for the cases storytelling my heart is pounding, my eyes are weeping, my emotions are tingling, then I feel sobbing and pause of my listening. Praying for the people who suffered from the loss, pain and trauma. I pay respect and pray for them. The center is very well equipped, managed and informative and convenient. Ticket prices is fairly enough.

Visiting the Choeung Ek Genocidal Center was a deeply emotional and reflective experience. The site is a stark reminder of Cambodia’s tragic history, and it’s important for understanding the country’s past. One of the best aspects of the visit was the audio guide provided with headphones, which allowed for a personal, quiet exploration of the grounds. The audio guide was incredibly informative and respectful, offering insights into the history and significance of each location within the center. The atmosphere is somber but serene, and it truly encourages you to pause and reflect. A must-visit for those wanting to learn about Cambodia’s history

It is really shocking to see this place but I am glad I was able to learn about the horrible history behind it. The audio guide is mandatory, without any guidance the place is just a bunch of random trees. You need someone to explain to you what happened. The audio tour is really good, it takes around 1 hour and it costs 6 USD for foreigners. Highly recommended during your visit to Phnom Penh.

I can't believe that this happened in the '70s and that Pol Pot was never truly brought to Justice. The audio tour was indispensable for understanding what happened here and throughout Cambodia. No study of communism should be complete without understanding the Khmer rouge.

Great audio headphone tour. A very sad and solemn place, but helpful for those to understand the dangers of communist terror. Worth the time to see, and it was only 6 dollars to enter as a foreigner.

Sobering but important museum to understand the atrocities that occurred to Cambodian people. The audiobook is brilliantly produced, helping visitors learn more as they move throughout the centre.

Very strange, the fact they have thousands of human skulls on show to the public instead of burying them to be at peace is just weird and I feel, wrong. But I used a English translator and tour and was told many things I did not know and that I guess many will not know fr places such as google, such as there are thousands of places called the killing Fields, I just thought there was one, and a film was made about it, but no, there are a huge amount. Plus what I found very unpleasant was the killing tree.. 😳 You will need to go there to learn the most evilest thing ever happened there. I can't write on here as I'll get blocked.

Worth to see to more deeply understand the history of the country during 1975-1979. Ticket: 6$ already with an audioguide. You will spend there around 1-1,5h
