Kampong Trach Market: A district market on National Road 33

Where it is

Kampong Trach is a separate town east of Kampot, on National Road 33 toward the hills near the Vietnamese border. The market is not inside Kampot's old-town walking grid.

Plan transport and the return journey before leaving. Treat it as an out-of-town outing, not a quick detour between stops on Street 724. Journey time depends on your starting point, route and traffic.

What to expect

The Kampong Trach Market pin marks the marketplace as a whole, with individual vendors rather than a single restaurant or tourist-facing shop.

There is no confirmed market-wide opening schedule in the directory. A morning visit is a planning suggestion, not a promise that every vendor will be trading. Check locally for a particular stall or service rather than assuming one closing time.

Clarifications and other stops

This is not the Kampot Night Market on Street 720 in Kampot town. That is a separate evening-market outing; the two names do not refer to the same place.

Phnom Chhnork Cave is a separate stop closer to Kampot town. Sharing a National Road 33 address does not make the cave and Kampong Trach Market neighbouring stops. Check the route before combining them.

If you only need an ATM while in Kampot town, check the town branches first. A Kampong Trach branch address means travelling to another town, not walking to a bank in the old grid.

Town businesses before or after the district drive

Cafe Espresso, at 17 National Road 33 in Kampot, is a possible coffee stop on the town side of an eastbound trip. Check that it fits your actual route and is open.

Simple Things, on Street 724 in Kampot's old town, is a vegetarian meal option before leaving town or after returning.

Neither business is beside Kampong Trach Market: both are back in Kampot town and require a separate drive. For food at the market itself, look at the stalls operating that day. This editorial shortlist is not a paid-placement ranking.
