Phnom Penh: Street Life I

The pictures were taken mainly at different places in central Phnom Penh. For example, the first five pictures were taken on a walk down Street 198 between Olympia City and Preah Monivong Blvd. I truly enjoy seeing that type of street life while traveling through Southeast Asia. The life you see on the streets a bit away from the main streets. Many of the pictures were also taken near The Old Market, Orussey Market, and in the areas both North and South of the Independence Monument.

Meat for sale

While it's interesting to watch, I wouldn't trust eating this meat that is stored openly and unrefrigerated in the hot, humid climate.

Fruits, such as these watermelons, are probably safer. This is still outside of The Old Market.

Sights like these are very common in Phnom Penh. Almost every street corner has a food truck.
