Such a colourful place!

by Wendy

I remember visiting Tuol Sleng. It was one of the most disturbing places I've ever been. It was more the general atmosphere rather than anything we saw. Loved Cambodia though. Only visited Phnom Penh and Siam Reap. Somewhere to revisit when life gets back to normal.
