Tuol Sleng - "Hill of the Poisonous Trees"

The Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum is a museum in Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. The site is a former high school which was used as the notorious Security Prison 21 (S-21) by the Khmer Rouge regime from its rise to power in 1975 to its fall in 1979.

Tuol Sleng, a dark moment in Cambodia's history. Man's inhumanity to man is not to be underestimated..
