Asian Handicraft and cyclos (tricylcles)

Hunting for unusual items is our main dutty at Maison du Mékong. When we are in Phnom Penh, we spend days nearby the traditional markets to find out for you the low-priced and very special item you won’t find in your neighbour’s living room.

Please find below some pictures of the worshop where buddhas are made especially for Maison du Mékong. I guess you won’t find this place if you go to Phnom Penh as it is very well hidden !

This morning I paid a visit to our “cyclos factory” to see how things where going on in order to get everything readyfor the shipping to France.
I also ook some cyclos pictures around the central market and noticed that there are still a lot of cyclos on the streets of Phnom Penh
