Advice for visiting 136 Pub Street

Stay safe! With such a busy street, and many drunk tourists, 136 Street Phnom Penh attracts many pick-pockets and bag snatchers.
Bring US dollars, and lots of small currency Cambodian Rial. Along with the many tourists come the many beggars and hawkers selling all sorts of novelties to buy, like red roses, packets of tissues, Cambodia fabrics and crafts. Also a lot of children beggars come up to you while you are sitting having a drink or walking down the street.
Be warned all the girls in the bars in Phnom Penh are not girls 🙂
Drink responsibly…hahahaha
