Grab a coffee at Sister Srey Cafe. The Australian-run spot in an old colonial building offers excellent brews and a wonderful atmosphere to start your morning quietly.

Walk to My Little Cafe for breakfast. This place is always full with locals, tourists, and expats, but they seem to magically make a seat for you. Order the phenomenal Khmer food; mains are around $3.
08:25
Stroll through Old Market. Browse the knick-knacks and art, keeping in mind that prices are generally higher for tourists and you should assume a starting point for bargaining at 20%.

Take a tuk-tuk to Phare The Cambodian Circus. The performers use theater, music, dance, and modern circus arts to tell uniquely Cambodian stories. The one-hour performance begins at 20:00.
Local tip
