Details
One of the most famous products sold at Psar Nat was Battambang oranges. Farmers grew these sweet, fragrant oranges in the countryside and transported them to the city by boat along the Sangkae River. Early in the morning, boats filled with fresh oranges would arrive, and traders would unload them near the market to sell. This river trade connected the farms, waterways, and market, making Psar Nat a key part of Battambang's economy.
Today, Psar Nat remains a lively market where visitors can experience local life, shop for fresh produce, and admire its historic architecture. If you visit, take a moment to imagine the boats arriving with oranges, just as they did in the past! Let's experience it now!
