The old market is where you can find almost everything in the world. From new shoes to fresh snails to bananas to raw silk to kitchen ware to pigs knuckles. Want a carving of a buddha for your meditation room? Heck, you could furnish a million temples, complete with straw mats, incense, buddha and an oil painting of your favorite karaoke star.
The old market is one of three in Siem Reap, that also includes the New Market and the Night Market. Got a silk bathrobe for 18 dollars - negotiated down from 28. The trick is, evidently, to ask what the price is and then immediately say "Are you CRAZY!?!". It works.
