    A must stop to see one mans effort to correct the evil of the land mine. His story unbelievable is one of caring for his country and trying to correct the wrongs done. What one person has done is fantastic. What needs to be done is far from done. The mines still injure people to this day. Makes you mad inside that humans can treat each other this way.

    Well worth a visit. So much history there and great works being done. A bit on the small side for such an important museum but all the information is there. Picture shows where money goes and contribution made by MY church to assist education in village schools.

    A reasonable entrance fee, detailed audio guide, and good cause. What more could you want? The staff are paid livable wages, and your contribution helps pay for the school/orphanage behind the museum as well as minesweeping missions. Attending here really opened my eyes to the struggles people still go through, even after nearly 40 years since the civil wars. A must-see if you have the option.

    Very interesting and informative. Great job on the translations and audio guides. Helps put in perspective how much Cambodia was affected by the wars, and the power is person can do to help a country.
    Wish it wasn't so far away and wish there was a bit more to see, but still very good and densely packed even in its small size.
    The audio guide is pretty much the same as the descriptions. But it's free so that's fine.

    A very small museum but worth the trip out to visit. The work that has been done by the team is inspiring and there is still seemingly plenty to do.

    Next door is an orphanage created by the founders that houses 20+ kids.

    An added bonus to the visit was the journey through the Cambodian countryside to get there.

    This man is admirable, after setting up so many mines which destroyed the landscape, he realized that he was being harmful to his people. he set himself a mission to help undo what he had created. if you visit Cambodia, the landmine museum is a must. it is sad to see that they are still affected to these days, but it presents a hopefulness to the situation because through his work, he has been able to promote knowledge and training for others to deactivate mines.

    This museum is well worth the drive out of the city. It is small, but very moving and informative. Your $5 admission and any money spent in the gift shop go to support the museum, as well as the dozens of orphan children that live there. I recommend taking the (free) audio guide and following the numbers through in order (0-22). Also may be worth visiting Banteay Srei temple as well while you are in the area, if you have a valid temple pass.

    Support a good cause and visit this museum!

    War may bring you victory but pain and suffer is all the people that will be getting.

    Aki Ra, the hero that founded this place with his contributions to dig up all land mines with the help from other NGOs.

    Worth visiting with very well organised information board and I have learnt a lot here.

    After the ticketing booth, walk straight inside and there’s a help desk on the right, you can have a player that tells you the story of this place in the language you desired.

    A must visit. It shows the horrors of war but also a real hero who dug up and defused 4,000 mines. The place is sobering but you should really go to see what war can do and what one person can do to make a difference.

    Informative and engaging display both of the life and work of akibra as well as 'the landmine issue' in cambodia and the contributing global players. Audio tour is well structured; we spent a 1.5 hours here till closingtime at 5 pm. All proceedings for benefit of landmine victems and disenfranched. Small souvenir shop with nice items like silk ties.
    Well worth it.
    12 usd tuktuk from siem reap, could combine with Banteay Srei temple visit

    Worth visiting. The museum is small but well organized and detailed-oriented. There are free plastic binders at the entrance (along the right wall) in multiple languages that you can borrow as you walk through the museum. The binder is organized into different sections that correlate with specific parts of the museum. Learning about Aki Ra (former Khmer Rouge child soldier and founder of the Landmine Museum) was a very eye-opening and moving experience. His life and how he's been giving back to his country is heartbreaking and inspiring. Proceeds from the museum ticket go back to the museum (you'll see a breakdown of where the money goes when you purchase your ticket). If you want to donate more, you can do so when you enter/exit. There is a large donation bin that you won't miss.

    If you like to know more about landmines in general, the history of Cambodia and the problems the people of this country face due to the wars in the past - you should really go there. Bill, a US american veteran, works there and is highly engaged. He gave me an almost personal tour through the museum. The people there do a really great job, I was very impressed by their work. The stories of the children who live in the village next to the museum really touched me. Thank you for helping the people of Cambodia and the innocent children, who still become victims of the past wars. Its wonderful to see that these chilren get a new future and they can smile again.

    This museum tells the history of land mines in Cambodia and the soldier who started it. It's a must see if you are into history of why and how things come about. The museum itself will not take an hour to go through unless you stay and listen to one of the volunteers tell their stories. The Museum also supports an attached orphanage (you can not visit this as it is their homes). Just beside the museum is a small restaurant (Cambodian style) that we are at when done. Nothing fancy and food was fine.

    Informative experience. I learned a lot about IED's, Soviet bloc landmines and fragmentation grenades.

    Audio guide device is provided at no extra cost. I love it!
    Well worth the visit. A must visit for all especially for war history buffs.

    The only way to stay human is to be aware of the monstrosity that lurks within. This museum helps remind us of the horrors of modern war and its toll on the common man. Never forget!
