This limestone hill is well worth a visit for its impressive views, a reminder of the Khmer Rouge atrocities and the extraordinary sight of millions of bats.
About half way up the hill, the ‘Killing Caves’ hold a golden buddha next to a memorial filled with the skeletal remains of victims. From the summit there are a number of viewpoints amongst the temples and on descending you can walk through a deep canyon guarded by two Angkorian warriors.
We were there in the evening and sampled a number of interesting street food stalls before seeing the spectacular sight of millions of bats emerging from the ‘bat cave’.
