    Ok, as markets go...
    This market has a bit of everything. A wet market, clothing, shoes, some restaurant and drink stalls, souvenirs, paintings, sculptures, even a section with car parts!... Was ok, but if you have been to any other markets in SEA then this one is pretty much the same.

    I wandered through the Russian Market to see how average folks shop in Phnom Penh. I love these markets in SE Asia. Here they sell almost everything, and it is an excellent place to just watch people. My guide and I enjoyed a stir fry lunch and ice coffee at a little food stand in the market ...... lunch for two was $5. The great thing about Cambodia is that everybody/everyplace accepts USD, so no currency conversions are necessary. I would definitely recommend a stroll through this Market.

    My favourite market in Phnomh Penh
    A market where you can buy almost everything for pretty cheap prices (not quite the variety of markets in Bangkok or so but still good) . Markets luckily seem to be less bargaining based so even tourists will get a pretty good price up front. The food court is amazing - try the special mango vinegar that every food stand in the market has, it's delicious!

    Interesting Experience
    Extensive market with something for everyone. However, it is very crowded and hot during the day (and at night I would guess). Good for the seasoned traveller and bargain hunter. An experience nut not for everyone. The Central Markets are probable a little easier to negotiate.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Quite okay

Selling different clothes which are factory outlets like. We have this in clothes in our country and they’re selling it cheaper here. Only problem is it’s very hot. Do not travel with children very hard to go.

Nice place to hunt Khmer Souvenirs but you need to have a very good bargaining skills. Try to bargain 1/3 first and going up a bit.

Absolute tat. Primark clothing, bad fakes, not worth going at all. Even my children who are desperate to spend money struggled

Can be missed on any trip to PP with no harm done.

We wandered around for about 15 minutes before we'd seen enough. Lots of items for sale as has been described before and places to eat but being at least partially enclosed boosts the wet market smells and the heat to uncomfortable levels. Can imagine going there for some souvenirs as a last resort but that's about it.

Another market
May 2023 • Solo
Honestly, this is just another market in Phnom Penh.

If anything, it's more a market for locals.

It has the things you'd expect at a market, food, clothes, jewellery but some odd items like motorcycle parts.

Central Market is a better choice due to the interesting architecture.

Love the Russian Market!
Jan. 2023 • Family
Walkable from Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (around 1.2 km). Such a wonderful place to buy souvenirs & even vehicle parts, chainsaws, etc!

We bought a piece of leather handcraft for $7, only a dollar discount even after hard bargaining. Some souvenirs such as fridge magnets might not be worth more than $4.

You might get lost & walk in the same alley again & again..hehe
