Central Market (Phnom Penh)
Housed in a striking 1937 art-deco dome, Central Market is Phnom Penh’s architectural and commercial icon. Inside, a maze of stalls offers gold jewelry, electronics, textiles, cosmetics, local snacks, and souvenirs—making it a popular stop for both first-time visitors and seasoned bargain hunters. The building’s yellow facade and vast geometric design are a photographer’s delight.
