Going local. There is a wide variety of choices when shopping at local markets in Phnom Penh. These are what you can get for $20 at a local market near where we live … #expatlife #expatpost #expatgenius #insidecambodia #insidephnompenh #expatliving #expatlife #expatcambodia #cambodia #cambodialife #goinglocal #shopping #phnompenh

Just another day at the Central Market (Psah Thmey) in Phnom Penh. The parking area is full, as always.

The colours are so inviting!

These are some of the tropical fruits found in local markets – durian, rambutan, banana, longgan, sapodilla, snake fruit, local lychee, and mango. Imported fruits like apples and oranges are also sold side by side these tropical fruits.

One of the hundreds of shops/stalls found at Psah Thmey (Central Market).

My husband and I love going to local markets. It’s the best place to find all kinds of goods, such as you see in the above photo. Tell me what can you see?

Psah Thmey, like all the other markers in the country, have a wonderful, chaotic character in them that a first-time visitor are easily overwhelmed. Market scenes like this assault your senses — all things bright and colourful, the lively sounds, and the smell, oh, the glorious smell of a market!

More market scenes are found here.

Hello, I’m back! I wasn’t planning on a long blog hiatus but there you go… I just did.
Now that I’m here again, I would try to make up for the lost time.

Here’s my Monday Mellow Yellows entry for this week:

Tshirts galore, available at Psah Thmey (Central Market).

I just happened to pass by and these brightly-coloured merchandise caught my eye. Most of the shirts actually have good quality similar to those sold in air-conditioned shops, but are way cheaper!
