Phsar Thom Thmei in Phnom Penh

Also known as Central Market, it's a large market constructed in 1937 in the shape of a dome with four arms branching out into vast hallways with countless stalls of goods.

When it first opened in 1937, it was said to be the biggest market in Asia, and today it serves as a fully functional historical market.

The market opens from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and it is, for tourists, a 'must see' stop. Most tourists visit this market because they want to see the extensive amount of products that are offered for bargain. The four wings of this gigantic yellow coloured dome are teeming with numerous stalls that sell goods ranging from gold and silver, antique coins, money exchange, men and women apparels, clocks, books, flowers, food, fabrics, shoes, souvenirs, fish, seafood, dessert, luggage and countless other products.

Cheese

I always thought cheese would be a fascinating thing to be into but there are so many choices, it's overwhelming. Are there any cheese heads out there to guide me?

I love Central Market. LOVE. When I see all the fresh ingredients laid out it makes me want to try them all. A good thing for someone who is struggling to leave behind the pre-packaged, junk food lifestyle.
