We would have wanted to visit the Angkor Silk Farm however we had a tight schedule on the last day so decided to just have a quick visit to the Main Showroom that is close by the Old Market and check out for any souvenirs. Regrettably, we should have allocated just a bit more time to the shop there (even extra half an hour would do). I guess we thought there wasn't much to see but surprisingly there was quite an attractive range of products. It was a good thing I came with an almost full suitcase which successfully deterred me from buying too many unnecessary things, however I did feel that I could not leave the Artisans Angkor shop without purchasing anything. So finally I decided on a plain black silk scarf ('Princess scarf') for a fair price of USD25 that I could wear all year since black goes with everything and not so seasonal.
Later on when we arrived at the Siem Reap International Airport, we discovered that they had another shop inside the departure hall - so if you miss out on buying some souvenirs downtown, you can still do some last minute shopping at their airport branch.
