7 Makara, central Phnom Penh
Prampi Makara (7th January) named after the day when Kampuchean Armed Forces and Vietnamese troops liberated the capital in 1979 is literally the centre of Phnom Penh. it is comprised of a web of narrow streets with every shop imaginable, all seemingly headed towards Orussey Market; the real Phnom Penh, the beating heart, the raw flesh where shop owners and stall holder ply their trades. A look up and you will see the pre-Pol Pot face of the city: the Khmer take on Modernism.
Prampi Makara is the smallest Khan in the city, subdivided into 8 Sangkats and 33 Kroms (villages). It is only 2.2 km² but in 1998 had 96,192 inhabitants, making it one of the most densely populated areas in the city.
Westerners tend to head towards Daun Penh or Chamkarmon as if nothing else matters. The Chinese appear only to want to be close to Naga World. Both ends of the investor / renter spectrum look elsewhere. Here you can buy or rent characterful living spaces for half the price of other areas and the moment you step into the street, the city presents itself in its fullness.
Orussey Market watches over all – chaos by day, a calm stillness by night. Barely 700m north are Vattanac and Canadia Towers, 400m southwest is Molyvann’s Olympic Stadium and to the immediate south BKK 1 and east, Riverside.

Prices can also vary markedly depending on where, when and what you are looking for. The city offers a huge range of properties, so it is important you know what is available.
Covid made things difficult for everyone and all over town, people started negotiating heavily. Although there is some residual goodwill, much has gone and prices are now close to pre-pandemic levels. Don’t expect real estate miracles anymore! There are essentially four types of rental options each with a distinct feature and price tag, depending on location… READ ON
