Cambodia sadly is one of the most mined countries in the world, having faced years of conflict including the brutal Khmer Rouge and as an off-shoot of the Vietnam War. Even today, Cambodian citizens are injured and even killed by unexploded ordnance as they go about their daily life in the countryside.
The Cambodia Landmine Museum gives a fascinating but horrific insight into the challenges the country has faced and still faces even now.
Although small, the Museum is well worth a visit to appreciate and understand the horror of war and the legacy that it can have on a country for decades after.
Proceeds from your entrance fee go towards clearing the estimated 3 million land mines still in the country.
