Artisans Angkor
Beste tid å besøke
Go in the morning when workshops are at full activity and the heat is still manageable. Weekday visits are calmer than weekends for unhurried chats with the artisans.
Budsjettips
Entry to the grounds, gallery, and open workshops is free; you only pay for meals or art. Set a souvenir budget ahead of time, since prices span from a few dollars for small paintings to hundreds for large canvases.
Anbefalt for
Art lovers, Slow travelers, Souvenir seekers, Families with older kids

Om
Raske fakta: Around 200 disadvantaged young people have trained here in 15 traditional Cambodian crafts, from stone carving to silk weaving. A French couple who sold their restaurant business fund it, and roughly half of every sale goes straight to the artists.
Høydepunkter: Watch silk weavers work wooden looms thread by thread, then step into a painting studio where canvases shimmer under real gold leaf. Over 2,000 original works hang in the gallery, and 50% of each purchase price lands directly in the artist's pocket.
Insidertips
- Book a hands-on workshop in advance for around $20 to try silk painting or stone carving yourself
- Claim a seat by the upstairs balcony at mid-morning for a wide view over the busy workshop floor
- Order the Cambodian-style fish lunch at the onsite restaurant, a favorite with locals who come just to eat
- Chat with artists at their benches in the first hour after opening, before tour groups filter in
