Shopping

For fine skills, textiles, statues and carvings along with silver work and even art, Cambodia is a treasure travel. The Buddhism themed items are sold in boutiques, on the street and in large markets both in Phnom Penh and Seim Reap and generally speaking, specific items for sale are to be found in specific parts of the towns. However, in certain markets, without a basic foundation in the Khmer language you’ll find it nigh on impossible to bargain prices down so make sure you take a Khmer- speaking friend along or stick to big markets.
