There are so many cool artistic things in this shop to peruse.

We had to find out more about the artist who does the paintings of the different countries because we fell in love with the art. We bought 4 different art pieces depicting countries in Asia and Europe that we have traveled to that hold deep meaning for us. The posters are 12 by 16 on homemade parchment style paper and sold for $6USD each. They are prints of the artists original with the longitude and latitude of the city, an outline of the skyline that makes it unique and a portrait of the key landmarks in an artistic rendition of the country.

Local Baskets & lamp shades shop

So this shop did not have a name, and I cannot find it on google maps, however, it was the best local shop that made all kind of baskets, lamp shades for hanging lights, shelves, and storage for your house as well as home decor that is all woven and made out of local natural products. It is on the road parallel to the river walk and is near the old market bridge. It is near Sister Srey Cafe. The products are always sitting outside so you cannot miss it. The owner gave us fair prices and better prices with no bartering than the local markets for the same handmade goods. We saw several locals stop by here and buy from here and it seems to be the best place. A medium sized basket is $7USD and the hanging wooden lamp shades for hanging lights you see all around Siem Reap were $3USD per shade. We wanted to buy so much more but could not carry it all back on the plane.

Hours: unknown

Price: $ so cheap!!!
