This is a smaller Buddhist Temple in Siem Reap which is known for its memorial to the Killing Fields.
Wat Thmei/ Wat Thmey Killing Fields Siem Reap- Ft. Austmon Pao Min Lee
Wat Thmei has a small memorial stupa containing the skulls and bones of victims of the Khmer Rouge. In 1975, the Khmer Rouge took hold of Cambodia. Over the next three and a half years, they reduced their citizens to nothing, stripping them off their dignity, forcing them to migrate to different ‘zones’ in Cambodia, losing contact with their families and having a direct impact on the death of over two million innocents, which represented 25% of the population at the time.
The bodies of the deceased were often dumped together in fields, pagodas and schools. There are many of these ‘Killing Fields’ all over the country. One significant Killing Field in Siem Reap is at Wat Thmey. This pagoda was used as a Khmer Rouge prison to house thousands of prisoners (note: prisoners were mostly innocents who were ‘tried’ on crimes they didn’t commit, and later were Khmer Rouge soldiers who were accused of treason). These prisoners were killed and buried inside two pits and six water wells located about 250 meters south of the prison. It is estimated that around 8,000 people were murdered at this pagoda during the Khmer Rouge regime.
In 1995, when Wat Thmey was renovated, a substantial amount of bones and skulls of the victims were placed in a memorial stupa. These are on display so both locals and tourists can visit and remember the tragic history of Cambodia.

Siem Reap killing fields - Cambodia
Very emotional tour to the Killing Fields in Siem Reap Cambodia. We thought there was only 1 killing fields, as it turns out, according to our great guide and Tuk Tuk driver Mr. Pech Vanny, there are over 300 killing fields in Cambodia. Some cannot be accessed due to the hidden land mines.

[한국어 정보]
와트마이 사원은 캄보디아 현대사의 비극을 간직하고 있는 사원이다. 70년대 후반 크메르루주에 의해 학살된 사람들을 추모하는 탑 안에는 희생자의 유골이 보존돼 있다. 킬링필드로 알려진 대학살 시기에 150만 명 이상이 희생을 당했다. “친미 정권에 협력했다는 이유로 많은 사람이 죽었죠. 스님들도 많이 죽고 절에서 쫓겨났어요. 절도 폐쇄됐지요. 그때의 상처가 아직도 가슴 깊은 곳에 남아있지요.” 극단적인 이념에 사로 잡혀 수많은 동족을 살해한 킬링필드의 참극이 다시는 되풀이 되지 않기를 간절히 빌어 본다.

Wat Mai temple is a temple to keep the tragic modern history of Cambodia. Inside the tower is a memorial to the late 1970s, the Khmer people slain by Rouge has gotta preserve the remains of the victims. 150 million in the period known as the Killing Fields genocide, was more than a sacrifice. Two euros pro-US regimes that cooperate with a lot of people died. Many monks also died and woken me kicked out. Theft got involved closure. Then the wound is still there itjiyo left chest deep. Extreme tragedy of captivity many killing fields of murdering their own people to the ideology looks earnestly wish that you do not repeat again.

Cambodia | Siem Reap | Angkor Wat | The Killing Fields
I didn't take many videos in Cambodia, probably because it was so hot that my phone was over heating! Cambodia was all about the temples and devastating history for us. After the plethora of temples in the mid-day sun (Angkor Wat), we went out in Siem Reap which Ian and I weren't too keen on as it was geared up for tourists and felt very fake. We didn't hang around in Siem Reap for any longer than needed (unfortunately, Ian and I had a bad tummy bug confining us to our room for a few days) before moving on to Phnom Penh to see the Killing Fields (WHICH HAPPENED IN THE LATE '70's!) and the Khmer Rouge museum. I didn't want to video the sites at the killing fields or the museum apart from the showcase at the end which was heartbreaking enough.
