More Discoveries in Siem Reap

T bargaining with the sales lady at the market near Angkor Wat.

I noticed that almost every goods in Cambodia are sold in $1 with a conversion rate of 40 Thai Baht per dollar. Sometimes I find it cheap but actually the exchange rate is more higher than the normal bank rate of 34 Thai Baht only. Although it is quite convenient for tourists to use USD currency in shopping, more likely you will avoid ending up with less worries in disposing small bills like the Cambodian Riel. One tip though, if the salesperson tells you that what you are trying to buy is $1, don't forget to haggle. The most, you can get three pieces of those goods for only $2.
