ល្អាងក្បាលខ្មោច ភ្នំសំពៅ | A Beautiful Cave Turned Tragedy, Turned Beauty Once Again - Killing Cave
Killing Cave is a must-do activity in Battambang! Located inside the Sam Pov Mountain, The killing caves of Phnom Sam Pov are a Khmer Rouge execution site on Phnom Sam Pov, a hill 7 mi (11 km) southwest of Battambang in western Cambodia. The Khmer Rouge killed their victims on top of the cave at the rim of a daylight shaft or ceiling hole and then threw the dead body into the cave. Men and women were placed in separate caves and clothes in another. There are a number of caves at Phnom Sam Pov that have traditionally served as Buddhist temples. Today there is a large glass memorial in the cave next to the skulls and bones and a golden reclining Buddha, that can be reached via a staircase. A memorial, assembled from cyclone fencing and chicken wire contains human bones at the base of the stairway.
Archaeologist knew that the stone came from quarries at the base of a mountain nearby, but wondered how the sandstone blocks, used to build the temple, reached to the site. According to new research, those massive sandstone blocks used to construct the temples in Angkor Complex were brought to the site via a network of hundreds of canals.
The findings shed light on how the site's 5 million to 10 million blocks, some weighing up to 3,300 pounds, made it to the temple from quarries at the base of a nearby mountain.
Today we bring you to know one of the quarry.

When you first step into Cambodia, you are thrown into a bustle of life and vibrancy. Especially if you have never explored South East Asia before you may feel overwhelmed, but once you get past the initial burst of culture, the feeling is incredible! There are definitely unmistakable characteristics that make every inch of your body know that you are in Asia, but once you delve a little deeper you start to uncover the elements that make Cambodia just so wonderfully special.
If I were to ask you to think of a symbol of Cambodia, most would straight away most think of the temple Angkor Wat. Why wouldn’t your mind go to such an iconic structure, that transports you back in history with its intricate carvings and meticulous design. However what makes the country unique are their 7 national symbols for flower, mammal, tree, fruit, fish, reptile and bird.
Today we will take you to know the national tree of Cambodia, can actually be recognized all across South East Asia called the TNAOT (Khmer), or Borassus flabellifer which is a type of palm tree. The palm is a popular plant representing Khmer society, because it shows the extent of Khmer territory from ancient time till today. The expression goes that “sugar palm tree is a shelter of Khmer house”. This relationship between history and the national tree was taught to me within my first few days in Cambodia as I stood gazing up at an impressive palm. Since that day I found myself seeing all these palms and daydreaming about there being one big enough to provide shelter for the entire country.

CRICKET TRAP in CAMBODIA - By night, the rice fields blaze with lights from the traps that farmers set up to lure the crickets. "Crickets are useful insects, People make money from them." The farmers said.
