I came here last night just to wander around. It’s a pretty standard market just at night🤷♂️ They have all the clothes and knock off stuff you want. In the food area, they have like carpets on the ground where everybody sits after you order food. It took my stupid western mind a minute to figure that out and how it worked. I ordered 4 little shish kebabs for $2. The people were super friendly, and the guy went and sat me down with the locals. Make sure you take off your shoes. I stuck out like a sore thumb being a large 6’4 white guy🤣🤣. Everybody was super friendly and I didn’t feel uncomfortable. I would definitely return I liked the vibe and the area. I wandered around for a little bit outside the market. It’s pretty busy with a lot of people coming and going and a lot of shops open. I don’t think I would want to hang around down there too late by myself on the surrounding streets. I went to go get a beer in a bar and ended up in the red light area. Definitely felt like a type of place you could get your teeth kicked in if you messed around.

A well-known tourist place in the center of Cambodia - Phnom Penh Night Market. This night market is located near the river side. There are many vendors selling clothing, accessories, and souvenirs in almost all styles. You can even find some "famous" products like the pictures I posted😄 There is a small square in the center of the night market with a stage area, which seems to be used for street performers. When we visited here on Thursday night, we saw some local performers was singing🎤 The whole atmosphere was very chill~ However, compared to night markets in other countries, there were fewer food vendors here, and the food vendors were all close to the innermost area, actually it’s not easy to be found. What is very special is that their eating and seating areas are all laid out on the floor, let people to sit directly on the floor. It's quite a special experience. Overall, it’s not a bad experience here. But also not very special.

I recently visited Phnom Penh Night Market and had a great time exploring the stalls and enjoying the lively atmosphere. The market offers a wide variety of goods, from traditional handicrafts and souvenirs to clothing, accessories, and food. The food stalls were a particular highlight for me, offering a range of local and international cuisine at reasonable prices. The live music and performances added to the festive atmosphere, making it a fun and enjoyable night out. While the market can get quite crowded and busy, the layout is well-organized and easy to navigate. The vendors were friendly and not too pushy, which was appreciated. Overall, I would definitely recommend a visit to Phnom Penh Night Market for anyone looking for a fun and vibrant evening experience in the city. It's not the most authentic or traditional market, but it offers a fun night out with plenty of options for food and shopping. Four stars!

As the name suggests, it5a night market in the heart of Phnom Penh. Opens everyday at night. Located on riverside, which the hotspots for tourists as well as locals gathering. May be you've already familiar with night markets in Bangkok, selling apparels, souvenirs, clothes, foods and live music. It's the same, but with a little bit of Phnom Penh twists. The clothes more like chinese made clothes, or souvenir clothes (you know, with the city name printed big). Foods are somewhat similar with Yong tau fu, where you choose assortments of meat, seafood, meatballs and other processed meats, veggies etc. Then you can choose to boiled it (like shabu shabu), grill it or deep fried it. Then you seat lesehan in the middle. Just choose empty spots. Don't forget the live music! Sometimes ajeb ajeb like dangdut, sometimes local ballads.

Compared to the Central Market and Russian Market, I actually preferred the Night Market for a couple of reasons. Being outdoors makes it a little less claustrophobic in my opinion, although the stalls on the outskirts are still quite close. Also there are quite a few street food stands towards the back that have some very cheap but good meals available. I got egg fried rice for 2 dollars, as well as a coconut and strawberry soft serve for the same price. There's supposed to be live music but apparently that has been put on hold because of covid. Would definitely be great to see that return. Most of the stalls sell the same cheap knock-off clothing items and apparel that is a dime a dozen in these other markets in the city. Would love to see some locally made goods available.

I wouldn't suggest going here to buy souvenirs. Most of the stuff here are clothes, shoes and bags (the non-souvenir types). The stuff sold here are kinda repetitive as alot of the stores sell the exact same thing. If you're in a rush to buy souvenirs, there are one or two stores that sell basic souvenirs like keychains or magnets but if you have more time I suggest the russian market as they have more variety. There are lots of food stalls as well as 2 ice cream stalls for dessert and the food tastes really good imo. I didn't get to try the steamboat but I did order some noodles which tastes very good (i forgot the name of the noodle unfortunately but it's the store at the very back of the market.
