Scenic lookout to take in and reflect on what we had just seen at the Holocaust Museum. Was all rather disturbing and shocking the extent of what occurred.
Afterwards we toured the The Museum of Genocide Victims/KGB Museum and saw the underground prison cells, padded and soundproof torture rooms, and even the execution room. The dungeon-esque walls contained countless marks where the bullets struck the concrete after passing through the victims' bodies. Even the drain cover from where the guards would then wash away the blood and the tiny window out of which they would hoist the body to be trucked into the surrounding woods and buried. Needless to say...a 'heavy' morning indeed.
