Freedom Park, also known as Democracy Square (Khmer: ទីលានប្រជាធិបតេយ្យ, Tiléan Prâchéathĭbâtéyy), was a 8,000-square-kilometre (3,100 sq mi) plaza in downtown Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It was the site of a number of protests from the 1990s until the 2010s.
In 2016, then prime minister Hun Sen ordered the plaza to be relocated and renamed Democracy Park (Khmer: សួនច្បារប្រជាធិបតេយ្យវិញ); the move was completed the following year.
