Killing Caves

Killing Caves, Battambang Overview

Widely known as the Killing Caves of Phnom Sampeau, this is one of the execution sites of the Khmer Rouge. Definitely not for those with a weak heart, the execution site features statues exhibiting the atrocities done by Khmer Rouge on the Cambodian locals. The wondrous and devastating site is a testament to thousands of Cambodians brutally bludgeoned and thrown into the abyss, later meeting death by starvation when they didn't die on impact in the corpse-congested caves. The reclining Buddha statue and memorial glass with victims' skulls are also some features that relay the grim tragedy.
