The beginning of Monday was rather depressing, we visited the Killing Fields outside of town and the Tuol Sleng (S21) prison. The Choeung Ek Killing Field was one of around 300 in Cambodia during they Khmar Rouge era (1970s). The prison was originally built as a high school.
The Khmar Rouge were essentially killing any educated person. The prison was a torture center, most of the prisoners were later killed.
The afternoon included a trip to the Royal Palace and to see the Silver Budda.
