A stark interrogation room in the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
The former school was used as Security Prison 21 (S-21) by the Khmer Rouge regime from 1975 until it fell in 1979.
Old classrooms were used as interrogation chambers, where prisoners were routinely beaten and tortured.
Many prisoners were chained to metal bed frames, while their tormentors bombarded them with questions from behind an old school desk.
Tuol Sleng is terrifying and depressing – but it’s one of the most thought-provoking and rewarding musuems I’ve ever visited.
