Angkor Night Market Street

This guide to Angkor Night Market Street in Siem Reap asks why a shed screening documentaries about the Khmer Rouge and landmines sits between a fish spa and a tarantula stand. You'll hear how the market opened in two thousand seven as Cambodia's first night market, built to revive silk, silver and stone crafts nearly lost after decades of war, and to put money straight into artisans' hands. Look for the Island Bar and the thatched Brick House along the way.
