Psah Thmai means "new market," but this grand though neglected bazaar was built in 1937 and is known to tourists as the Central Market. Its high vaulted ceilings (up to 30 metres) make it a more comfortable place to browse than many of the city's more cluttered markets. There is an amazing range of merchandise available, from souvenirs to clothing, shoes, street food and fresh produce. Prices are high here compared to other markets, even for locals. That said, bargaining is expected and you can expect prices to fall significantly with some good humored haggling.
