Visit Siem Reap, the only and important stop of Angkor Wat.
It's five o'clock in the afternoon, so everyone decided to go out for a stroll. Looking at the map, we know that the busiest old market in Siem Reap is nearby, which is why we choose to live here. As soon as I left the door, I asked with a map, and there were enthusiastic people who showed me how to get there. Walk slowly all the way and see the city of Siem Reap.
It is Angkor Wat, which is listed as one of the seven wonders of the world, that makes travelers from all over the world flock to Siem Reap, a humble town. Siem Reap is the only and important place to visit Angkor monuments, which has a history of one hundred years. Siem Reap has thus become a famous tourist city, which is obviously richer and more prosperous than the capital Phnom Penh. In Phnom Penh, no department stores and bakeries were found for several days (perhaps not around where we live), but in Siem Reap, it was much more convenient to find all this.
The area around the old market is the busiest place in Siem Reap, and it is also the center of activities for citizens and tourists in Siem Reap. Basically, local delicious shops, good hotels and high consumption (according to local living standards) are all around here. There are very rich commodities here, including daily necessities and various snacks, which are dazzling and lively. The price of goods is much higher than that of Phnom Penh. It is said that vendors quote tourists five times more expensive than locals, so they should try their best to bargain.

The center of citizens' and tourists' activities in Siem Reap is the old market, which is also the most lively place in Siem Reap. Basically, local delicious shops, good hotels and high consumption are all near here. It is a trade block established during the French colonial period and has some French architectural features. Here, you can also clearly feel the atmosphere of the tourist city, where tourists of all colors shuttle.

Two foreigners are enjoying fish pedicures very comfortably, watching us pass by and saying hello to let us go and see how those small fish kiss his feet.
There is also a car similar to the urban management. The driver shouted all the way with a loudspeaker in his hand. Although he didn't understand it, he could guess the general meaning.
All daily necessities and souvenirs can be bought here. The goods here are very rich, including wood carvings, clay sculptures imitating Angkor architecture, cloth scarves, hand-embroidered silk shawls, silver ornaments, chopsticks, incense and so on. The same thing is more expensive than Phnom Penh, so try to bargain as much as possible. We basically look at it and don't pay for it easily.
after a lap, I saw that it was getting late and I was hungry. I was going to find a place to have dinner. After a day's drive, I didn't eat much at noon, so I was waiting to eat delicious food at night. There are many kinds of restaurants here, unlike in Phnom Penh, where you can't find a place to eat later.
when we were doing our homework before coming, many people recommended the delicious food in Khmer kitchen restaurant, and we happened to meet them, so we decided to settle the dinner here.
I don't know the language, so I have to order according to the pictures.
The service girl showed us the name of the dish we ordered. Can you understand it?
delicious food is on the table. The key to this vegetarian Vietnamese spring roll is the dipping in the middle bowl.
This seems to be Dongyin Gong Tang, which is sour and appetizing.
Looking at the muddled soup, it's not the name of the dish. It was recommended by the waiter here, and it tastes good.
Pan-fried sea fish
Stems of water spinach
The local people eat very little. If they order fast food, they will definitely not have enough rice. If they want to add rice, they will have to pay more.
Order a good dish and ask the waiter to add another big bowl of rice. Later, a big bowl of rice will be served, but the waiter's younger sister will help you divide only one spoon for each plate, and will shape the rice with the spoon in an oval shape. After that, the rest of the rice in the big bowl will be watched by the waiter's younger sister and taken away.
Later, at my request, I added another spoonful of rice. You have to eat enough when you go out, and don't lose weight!
I walked all the way through the old market and found a temple. Like many Buddhist places, the temple architecture is always the most beautiful. Turn around the temple yard and walk into a room where monks are giving lectures to the public. They turned a blind eye to our arrival and didn't drive us away. They watched it quietly and took some photos with their mobile phones.
I saw such a group of sculptures in the yard, and there were some bloody scenes. This must be a story. I saw a local tour guide explaining and listening to two foreign tourists, but they spoke English, and the result was a failure.
