The Basics

Visit to browse the stalls, shop for souvenirs, and enjoy some local snacks. Prices are negotiable, and it’s worth looking around before you buy as many stores have similar stock.The bridge across the river, near the market, is a great location for night photography.

Be aware that fakes are common, and some goods come from factories in China.

Goods tend to be piled high, making it tough to navigate the market in a wheelchair.

The Siem Reap Art Center Night Market is in the center of downtown, an easy stroll south of Pub Street, and just across the river from the Old Market (Phsar Chas). If you’re coming from further afield, you might wish to hire a private driver as there is no public transportation in the city.
