Old Market

Many of the usual and not-so-usual things for sale to tourists and regular people. be respectful in your bargaining, keep it light, and above all remember that this is how they make (the shopkeeper) their living. If you can walk away after bargaining with both of you smiling, that is the best outcome. Pay what you think is a fair price, and don't pay according to what you hear about markup, it may not be so close to the mark.

Live going to the market to get toys for the kids, maybe some lounge clothes, cigarettes, ect. Friendly faces, fun new things to see, skills to learn! We love going with the kids. Always have a great time with full smiles!

Well lot, really good clothing options, souvenirs, and artisanal products to buy. Bargaining is a must since their prices are flexible. There are certain accessories stores, and export reject sale stores for the brand enthusiasts which will give you good finish products for steal deals. Careful - you'll find yourself buying things and shopping (both men and women) and stopping only because you run out of money. Enough food stops to sustain you as well.

A good market to get anything and everything. Not as busy on a weekday but the shopkeepers can be pushy. Be firm with the price you willing to pay and make sure you haggling. Always half or less than half from what they ask. Otherwise love the market.

Also known as Psar Chas… situated just behind Pub Street… caters for local as well as tourists… must bargain ( start by 50%) Divided into wet and dry sections 7am-8pm

As your local guide, I always recommend a visit to Psar Chas, or the Old Market, in Siem Reap. It's more than just a market; it's a vibrant slice of local life. Here, you'll find everything from fresh produce and spices to souvenirs, clothing, and handcrafted goods. The atmosphere is bustling, filled with the sounds of daily commerce and the aroma of street food. It's a fantastic place to experience authentic Cambodian culture, practice your bargaining skills, and pick up unique gifts. Don't miss the chance to grab a refreshing fruit shake or some delicious local snacks while you explore!

Loved this market not just for its produce and wares but an insight into the local way of life. The fresh food area is alive with the constant chatter of people selling and buying.

Okay, real talk. The Old Market isn’t just about shopping; it’s about connection. It’s a chance to meet the people behind the crafts, hear their stories, and appreciate the deep cultural heritage of Cambodia. Take the time to chat with the vendors and learn about their traditions—it’s a beautiful reminder that the things we buy are more meaningful when they come with a story. Plus, it’s an opportunity to support local families and communities. Speaking of local, let’s dive into the food stalls! You cannot leave without trying the one of the many street authentic restaurants. fresh tropical fruits—mangoes, dragon fruits, and the sweetest pineapples. Also, don’t miss the fish amok spice kits; you can take a little piece of Cambodian cuisine home with you. Cooking = love, and this market? A love letter to food!
