Centre National de la Soie is a information in Siemreap, Cambodia — one of 118 local services we map across the province, and part of a wider dataset of 2,866 mapped locations in Siemreap. In Khmer it would be described as សេវាកម្មនៅសៀមរាប. It sits at 13.43729, 103.74476, which is the coordinate any Cambodian tuk-tuk or PassApp driver can be shown directly if the name is unfamiliar to them.

As a local service, it serves both residents and visitors passing through Siemreap. 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 Centre National de la Soie is by nearby landmarks. It lies roughly 0 m south-east of Welcome to Artisans Angkor Silk Farm, and about 0 m west of Artisans Angkor Silk Farm, with Blue Pumpkin a further 100 m south-east. Drivers in Siemreap 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 Siemreap, 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.

Centre National de la Soie is mapped as a information in Siemreap. Public offices and service points in Cambodia usually work Monday to Friday from 7:30am or 8am, break for lunch between noon and 2pm, and close by 5pm; they shut entirely on the country's public holidays, which cluster around Khmer New Year in April, Pchum Ben and the November Water Festival.

Bring your passport and photocopies for anything official, and expect paperwork to be handled in person rather than online. Arriving early in the morning avoids both the queue and the heat.

Centre National de la Soie is not isolated: our map records 8 other mapped locations within a short ride, including Welcome to Artisans Angkor Silk Farm (information, 0 m south-east), Artisans Angkor Silk Farm (attraction, 0 m west), Blue Pumpkin (cafe, 100 m south-east), Depot Tela (fuel, 400 m south-west). 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.
