Cambodia Landmine Museum

This is a very interesting and informative museum, dedicated to educating the public about the history and on going efforts to clear landmines still spread across Cambodia. There is an entrance fee of $3.00. Well worth the support it gives for their cause.

I was given a tour by Bill, a retired American soldier well educated in the history of mining through Cambodia and Viet Nam. I learned quite a bit from Bill. There are excellent information signs and displays of deactivated landmines and UXO’s (un-exploded ordinance).
The location is also a relief facility for at-risk children from villages through Cambodia. They are doing great work here and if you have the time it is worth a visit. It is especially easy if you are going to or from Banteay Srey Temple complex.

Hours: Monday through Sunday 7:30 am – 5:30 pm

Directions: Located 25km north of Siem Reap on the road to Banteay Srey Temple complex.
