Learning About Landmines At The Cambodia Landmine And Relief Center

Tired of temples at Siem Reap? Head to the Landmine Museum, an excellent place to learn about Cambodia's heartbreaking battle with the deadly armament.

The museum and relief center is a homemade, organic project, started by a former soldier who started clearing mines and taking in children injured by mines. Aki Ra turned into a man on a mission. More details are here.

Bombs away.

The depressing spoils, quite a variety.

Bizarre paper mâche marketplace re-creation.

A close up look at death. In the center courtyard, a murder's row of the different mines and munitions used.

Wat Preah Prom In Siem Reap

There's a great Buddhist monastery and temple right in downtown Siem Reap. It's definitely worth a visit, especially if you're looking for something different from the piles of 12th century rocks.

The main Wat.

Lots to look at around the expansive grounds. Finely-manicured trees, a gaggle of Buddhas.

Grizzly tales, in cringe-worthy 3D.

Concrete animals, looking well.

Advice and direction, during and after life.
