Small market

Small market is a supermarket in Preah Vihear, Cambodia — one of 8 markets and shops we map across the province, and part of a wider dataset of 228 mapped locations in Preah Vihear. In Khmer it would be described as ផ្សារទំនើបនៅព្រះវិហារ. It sits at 13.18798, 105.04065, which is the coordinate any Cambodian tuk-tuk or PassApp driver can be shown directly if the name is unfamiliar to them.

As a market or shop, it serves both residents and visitors passing through Preah Vihear. It has no official website, so opening hours and prices are best confirmed by phone or by asking locally on the day — small businesses in Cambodia change hours seasonally and close for family events and festivals.

The easiest way to find Small market is by nearby landmarks. It lies roughly 300 m north of Papa, and about 12.7 km north of Temple, with Romaniy police station a further 12.9 km north. Drivers in Preah Vihear usually navigate by these anchors rather than street numbers, so naming the closest one gets you there faster than an address.

From the centre of Preah Vihear, a tuk-tuk or PassApp ride is the standard way to arrive; short in-town trips generally cost US$1 to US$3, and longer provincial runs are worth agreeing in advance. Rented motorbikes are widely available from guesthouses, and self-driving is realistic on sealed roads in the dry season — less so between June and October, when heavy afternoon rain floods side streets and unpaved approaches. The "Get directions" link on this page opens the exact coordinates in Google Maps for turn-by-turn navigation.

Small market is recorded as a supermarket in Preah Vihear. Traditional Cambodian markets start before dawn and are at their best between 6am and 9am, when fresh produce, fish and meat arrive; stalls selling clothing, souvenirs and household goods stay open until late afternoon. Shopping malls and supermarkets keep longer hours, typically 9am to 9pm daily.

Prices in markets are negotiable and quoted in a mix of riel and dollars — a friendly counter-offer of around two-thirds of the opening price is normal. Supermarkets and malls have fixed prices and accept cards. Carry small notes, and expect fresh-food sections to be wet underfoot.

Small market is not isolated: our map records 8 other mapped locations within a short ride, including Papa (fuel, 300 m north), Temple (place of worship, 12.7 km north), Romaniy police station (police, 12.9 km north), Toape Guesthouse (guest house, 13.2 km north). Pairing a visit here with one or two of those makes a more efficient half-day, especially if you are paying a driver by the trip rather than by the hour.
