We spent two nights in Phnom Penh which gave us a bit of free time after our main tours: Cyclo rides around the city and riverside,  the Killing Fields and the Genocide Prison Museum. One of exploratory tours on foot led us through a large maket situated between our hotel and the river. 

Phsar Chas – which translates to ‘Old Market’ – is located in the Daun Penh district of the Cambodian capital. Unlike the other major markets in the city this one doesn't cater as much to tourists looking for souvenirs -- rather most of the 900 stalls feature such items as unusual meats, fruits and vegetables, second hand clothing, hardware, motorcycle parts, religious items, etc.
