Killing Fields of Siem Reap

It is not known exactly how many Cambodians died at the hands of the Khmer Rouge during the three years, eight months and 21 days of their rule. The Vietnamese claim 3 millions death, while foreign experts long considered the number close to 1 millions. Hundreds of thousands of people were executed by the Khmer Rouge leadership, while hundreds of thousands more died of famine and disease.

SKULLS of the Khmer Rouge Regime victims, preserve to spread the history of human lost and tragedy of this little place!

My new friends! Monks who guards the 'small' version of the killing fields of Siem Reap

The monks are happy enough to show me their little kitchen, although they warmed me that its a bit messy!, i don't think 'messy' is the word for it, but they are really cool about me roaming around their tiny home;)

This was part of the grounds where most boddies where buried and dugged up to either be shiften in a proper graveyard and skulls to be preserved! Now used for garbage disposal which is to be burned later on!

Grave yards for the victims of the Khmer Rouge Regime!

What better than to relieve your stress from here! ;

Skulls upclose! quite freaky if you think about it!

Tombs for the victims!
