This is a really large market with four wings plus stalls all around. The middle is filled with jewelry counters and each wing seems to specialize in clothing, house wears etc. I am a retired lady and don’t really need anything. What I did find interesting were the areas where haircuts, pedicures and sewing were being done. We spent about 45 minutes here

Worth a quick trip and make sure you've got your haggling hat on. The architecture of the building is very colonial. Like most Asian markets, things are grouped so if you can't find what you want, wander a bit more. I got some good sports tops (Under Armour) for the price I'd pay for one back in the UK - they might not be the real ones, but I think some stuff is definitely legit as many big companies manufacture in Cambodia. The stall holders all speak good English and if they haven't got what you want on display, then their relative in the stall opposite will find it for you!

Shopping at Central Market is an exhilarating experience that offers a vibrant blend of local culture and commerce. The market, housed in a stunning Art Deco building, is a bustling hub where you can find everything from fresh produce and exotic spices to unique handicrafts and stylish clothing. The variety of goods available is impressive, and the vendors are friendly and eager to assist.

The shopping isn’t too bad, but I liked visiting for the architecture - particularly the inside. Like most of these markets, there’s plenty for the tourists and the locals alike. I bought fake Raybans and the obligatory Angkor beer shirt. They have sizes for fat blokes, so it is all good.

A gutter square building with a high, large dome in the center. Under this dome we find the stalls with jewelry, watches, glasses, etc. The corridors are wide here. Many extremely narrow streets radiate from this round, central hall, lined with thousands of stalls full of clothing, souvenirs, knickknacks, etc. Of course, everything is fake brands. The stalls, approximately two meters wide, are packed with merchandise and sellers sleep on the floor between them. Don't glance at the goods or they will immediately wake up and praise their goods. Bidding down to 50% is the minimum here.

got here and walked around. nice yellow old roofs for 04 direction of Tonlesap rivers... bought some thai's oil treatment and Cambodia's and good price. shop seller, mamasan is friendly

My visit to Central Market was an unforgettable experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting the city. This bustling market is a true gem, offering a vibrant and authentic glimpse into Cambodian culture. The variety of goods available is astounding. From fresh produce and local delicacies to clothing, jewelry, and souvenirs, Central Market has something for everyone.

We were only here briefly so can’t really speak for the whole market, but I want to say that the prices here (specifically for jewelry) were far cheaper than at the Russian market! We were told the Central Market would be more expensive, but that’s not what we experienced. For a fake Van Cleef bracelet at the Russian Market, we were quoted about 40 dollars, give or take ten (depending on the seller and in combination with other items). At the Central Market, right in the center dome, we were quoted 13 dollars for an equivalent (or a bit nicer even) bracelet. My recommendation (for jewelry at least) would be to visit the Central Market FIRST, and then go to the Russian Market if you can’t find what you’re looking for. And for the love of god remember to haggle for half at least in the Russian Market.

We visited this nice building market yesterday and we found it to be very big and all the items from household goods to dresses , Jeans , Tshirts, goggles , artificial jewellary , currency exchange are available here. The sad part is that most of the items are copy and fake 😢. 40 to 50 % bargaining is common. So if you love shopping head to this market. Everything in Cambodia closes by 5 PM so be aware about the time. Happy Shopping

central market is a great place where you can find everything, even what you wouldn't want.😉 we went there because I read great reviews and we were very interested. I went there more because of some souvenirs with wooden cambodia. Great selection and prices are negotiable. Otherwise, I highly recommend it when you visit Phnom Penh.
