Plans have been set for Phnom Penh’s Central Train Station to be tastefully restored into an iconic retail plaza.
Sitting adjacent to the capital’s central business district, the train station was originally built by the French in 1932. It has remained one of the most iconic examples of French colonial architecture in Phnom Penh.
The Train Square Retail Plaza features 3,000 square meters net of retail space, cafes, bars, restaurants, health & beauty options, travel and tourism as well as cater space for exhibition and event around the grand atrium of the iconic art deco train station.
The rail station was previously refurbished in 2012. Over the last five years, it has seen increased activity with updating routes connecting Phnom Penh, Kampot, Sihanoukville, Pursat and Poipet. There is also daily shuttle to the airport.
The revitalization of the station will see it restored to its former glory. Definitely another new destination for Cambodian and international visitors.
