Tuol Sleng and Ek Killing Fields (Pictures)

This is one of the torture and interrogation rooms from the prison.  You can see how thin the mat is, chains and shackles, and a metal box that I read somewhere might have been for their water.

There were about 4 or 5 of these buildings in Tuol Sleng.  Some had rooms like the one above and others had very tiny jail cells made of brick and/or wood.  You can also see here, the gallows Micah talked about in our post.

These are the people that lost their lives during the Khmer Rouge.  There were 4 rooms of these boards lining both sides of the rooms and having pictures on both sides.  Nobody knows for sure how many were killed during this time but it is anywhere from 2 million to 7 million.

This man and one other are the only two left living of the seven survivors from Toul Sleng.  We bought his book.

These are some cloths from the people killed and the Killing Fields.  They are just now resurfacing.  Workers go out every couple months to pick up the clothes and bones that have come up during the heavy rains.

This is the killing tree we talked about in the blog post.

If you look closely inside this building you can see skulls and bones.  This was built at the killing fields and a sort of memorial of those who lost their lives.
