There are a gazillion things on sale at the markets. Silk scarves %26amp; sarongs, sandstone Buddha heads, little stuffed elephants, fake Northface backpacks, sapphires and other loose stones, rubbings of Angkorian reliefs...Go and browse around and see what you like. Then ask prices. Then try to bargain it down about 200%.

Hey Koolken! I highly recommend Colors of Cambodia in the market area. However, I am not certain if this establishment still exists. But if it does you must step inside. We purchased a great water color painting by a student named Sambon which still hangs in our home. Here is a link about it with address, etc: frommers.com/destinations/…S32958.html

Love to taken some of the sandstone carvings they were selling back. However too heavy - need baggage allowance just for one of those. :(

Only thing truly unique to SR seemed to be the rubbings. Everything else was cheaper at the Weekend Market in Bangkok!
