Practical information : Treat yourself (& others) Cambodia
Timetable
Stores are generally open from 7am to 7pm every day of the week. Sundays are rarely off. Markets are most popular in the morning, when food is freshest.
Budget & Tips
With Cambodia's low standard of living, prices for everyday goods are generally very affordable. When it comes to souvenirs, the lower end of the market is unbeatable. But you can also find top-of-the-range items at much higher prices. In any case, haggling is the order of the day (for your colorful scarf or your I Love Angkor T-Shirt, not for your kilo of carrots).
What's very local
The market is the place to find everything par excellence. In the souvenirs section, you'll find the traditional krama, a checkered scarf worn by men and women alike, beautifully crafted wood carvings, silk, local silver jewelry... and the famous Kampot pepper, which fetches a premium.
Tourist traps
Be particularly careful when buying items whose origin is difficult to determine. Precious metals and stones, in particular, are quite easy to imitate. If you're not a specialist (and you're not!), don't be tempted to make a purchase you'll regret. And don't be fooled by the fact that it's forbidden to bring back stones or sculptures from local temples.
