点评:Also known as S-21 the museum is one of Cambodias most importang historical sites. Formerly a high school it was transformed into a prison during the Khmer Rouge regime. Today it swrves as a poweful memorial and museum showing the stories of the victims and documenting the countrys tragic past. Definitely a must visit offering a sobbering but meaninful insight into Cambodias history honouring those who suffered and helping show visitors the resiliance of the Cambodian people.
We next visited the Killing Fields which offers a deep and moving insight intobone of the darkest chapters of Cambodian history. The guider tour peovides important historical context about the Khner Rouge regine and honours the memory of the victims through preserved sites memorials and audio story telling which we ded not need as our guide was a victim of the genocide when he was put to work in rhe camps and later he was raised in an orphanage as he has lost both parents and two siblings to the genocide. It is a meaninful experience that encourages reflection understanding and respect.
Felt a bit disrespectful taking photos but did limit my self to one or two the first of the four children rescued when the camp was liberated two of which were brothers and were there at the genocide museum to meet visitors and promote their life story memoir. Secondly the tree where the camp guards would kill babies by smashing their heads against the tree. A terifying and barbaric act
It is a very sad experience and like Aushwitz well worth experiencing.

翻译:这座博物馆也被称为S-21,是柬埔寨最重要的历史遗址之一。它原是一所高中,在红色高棉政权时期被改建为监狱。如今,它已成为一座震撼人心的纪念馆和博物馆,讲述着受害者的故事,记录着这个国家悲惨的过去。这里绝对值得一游,它能让人深思,却又意义非凡地了解柬埔寨的历史,缅怀那些遭受苦难的人们,并向游客展现柬埔寨人民的坚韧不拔。
接下来,我们参观了杀戮场,它深刻而动人地展现了柬埔寨历史上最黑暗的篇章。导游讲解员提供了关于红色高棉政权的重要历史背景,并通过保存完好的遗址、纪念碑和语音故事来缅怀受害者。不过,我们并不需要语音故事,因为我们的导游本身就是种族灭绝的受害者,他曾被强迫在集中营里做苦工,后来在孤儿院长大,因为他的父母和两个兄弟姐妹都在种族灭绝中丧生。这是一次意义非凡的经历,它促使人们反思、理解和尊重。
拍照感觉有点不敬,但我还是只拍了一两张。第一张照片是集中营解放时获救的四个孩子,其中两个是兄弟,他们当时在种族灭绝博物馆与游客见面,并宣传他们的回忆录。第二张照片是集中营守卫用头撞击婴儿头部致其死亡的那棵树。这是一种令人毛骨悚然的野蛮行径。
这是一次非常悲伤的经历,和奥斯维辛集中营一样,非常值得亲身经历。
