I wish I can rate The killing fields as terrible because of all the terror, pain and the brutality of that not so distant past. But the place is actually very well organised with an audio tour available in several languages. A sad, sad place to be...

I debated with myself before writing this review. Was it worth a visit? Most definitely. Was it a meaningful experience? Yes, absolutely. Was it difficult to do? Yes, but rewarding to witness the respect and dignity with which it was treated by tourists. I admit I had read quite a bit of Cambodia's history before our trip, seen movies, notably... More

$5US entry, reasonable price. Provided with an audio headset which gives valuable information instead of just starting at a block of land with a few land marks. Very sad but a great part of Cambodian history and a must visit! Loved it, very valuable experience! Best take a car as the road is not great and it is a bit... More

$5 including a headset is all it costs to see this. Although it is not a happy place, it is now a peaceful and respectful place for the souls who lost their life here.

A must see to further understand the sad history of Cambodia. Great audio tour which makes you fell emotionally connected to the place!

This tour is a must. Not too many chances for most of us to see such a significant part of history. The more that go and see it, the less likely it will happen again.

Lots of emotions visiting this site. Actually there isn't much to see, but you learned a lot thanks to the audioguide, which is excellent. This visit is to be combined with the genocide museum, to understand the full extend of the Khmers Rouge horrors. The admission fee is a bit high (5USD), but I would recommend it to anyone interested... More

It's hard to believe that as recently as 1975-79 some 2million people were slaughtered by their fellow Cambodians in a period of madness undertaken by Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge forces.The 'killing fields' 15km outside Phnom Penh is the area that prisoners were taken to be executed after interrogation and torture at the Tuol Sleng prison in town itself....

Now a quiet, reflective area which acts as a memorial to almost 9,000 people killed between 1975/78. Take time to watch the short video before walking around using the excellent audio guides.
