Phsar Thmei (Central Market)
Iconic Art Deco-style market.
Phsar Thmei (Central Market)
Beneath the golden dome of Phsar Thmei — meaning “New Market” in Khmer — lies a living treasure of Cambodian culture and craftsmanship. Built in 1937, this Art Deco masterpiece stands as a symbol of Phnom Penh’s timeless charm.
Each aisle tells a story — from silk scarves handwoven in rural villages to vintage coins and gemstones that whisper of the past.
More than a marketplace, Phsar Thmei is the soul of the city — bright, bustling, and beautifully alive.
