This is Psah Thmey, or Central Market, located at the heart of downtown Phnom Penh. It is one of the liveliest markets, the main shopping center and the number one tourist hot spot in Phnom Penh. Built in French art-style deco, the market is shaped like a dome with four wings, divided into stalls packed with all sorts of stuffs!
