Olympic Market Market
Large Phnom Penh market selling clothing and food
In the neighborhood of the Olympic Stadium is the now-called Olympic Market. While less interesting to shop in than the Central or Russian markets, Olympic Market has smaller crowds and thus has better air-circulation than most others.
About Olympic Market#
Olympic Market takes its name from the nearby Olympic Stadium in central Phnom Penh. Less of a shopping draw than the Central or Russian markets, it is a local neighbourhood market with smaller crowds and, as a result, better air circulation than most others in the city. Mornings are the best time to visit.
Exploring Olympic Market#
Olympic Market’s real highlight is its fabrics. The second floor holds a fine selection, arranged in distinct zones - cotton and synthetic materials on one side, and more traditional fabrics such as silk on the other - making it a good stop for anyone shopping for cloth.
