Tuol Sleng was a Phnom Penh secondary school that the Khmer Rouge turned into Security Prison 21 in 1975. Of the roughly 12,000 to 20,000 people held there, a dozen or so survived. The classrooms still have the iron bed frames and the photographs the regime took of every prisoner on arrival. Choeung Ek, about 15 kilometres out, is where most were taken to be killed, and its stupa holds some 5,000 skulls; the audio guide there is narrated in part by a survivor and is the reason most visitors manage it at all. Both are done quietly, take about half a day together, and are not suitable for young children. This one is priced for the group rather than per head: 1 traveller costs $44 and 2 costs $44, so the more of you there are the less each of you pays. Passion Indochina Travel Co.,Ltd. runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
