ANGKOR NIGHT MARKET IN SIEM REAP, KINGDOM OF CAMBODIA

Unlike many of its neighboring countries, Cambodia did not have any after-hours traders until early in 2007. The scene changed with the opening of the first market of its kind in Siem Reap. Drawing on their experiences as visitors, the market's founders were careful not to create a tourist park, as is often the case. 

There's no warehouse-like setting nor masses of stalls offering the same souvenirs. Instead, you will find smoothly laid-out huts, more than 200, built from natural materials and designed in a beautiful Khmer style. Traditional Cambodian handmade products feature strongly, including clothing, silks, art, jewelry, wood and stone carvings and other handcrafts- often produced by orphans and handicapped people who are allocated stalls at a discounted price. 

The setting is made for a perfect shopping experience among friendly and courteous sellers. Of course, bargaining is a must as it is part of the Cambodian culture, it is a great way to mingle with the locals in a friendly manner. 

Hungry after along day, there are three location within the Angkor Night Market from which to choose: the superb Island Bar with acoustic live music, the Brick House Bar with an amazing BBQ and a selection of Thai street food or the Coco House which offer a variety of Asian specialties. 

You can also visit the fun Dr. Fish massage pool where small fish happily nibble the death skin of your feeling and legs. Please note that while there are several Night Market operating now in Siem Reap, the Angkor Night Market is the original market and a accessible from three different directions. We do have a strong philosophy of Hassle Free Shopping.
