Back in I wrote a post about the lost bars of Phnom Penh that seemed to elicit a lot of recollections. Since that post was made several more well known bars closed there doors.
Another post on those bars is now due. Cambodia like Thailand is filled with massage parlors of all kinds.
There is no possible way for one person to keep track of the comings and goings of every single massage parlor in the country. Panda Massage which is not to be confused with Panda Mart was a longtime favorite of many Westerners who either lived in or visited Phnom Penh. Located on Street not far from the infamous Golden Sorya Mall the place had a staff made up of several Khmer and Vietnamese women who offered full body massages and more.
Panda Massage looked a lot like a house. There were always some small dogs in the Panda Massage lobby. Usually they were off to the left of the entrance where they were either tied up with a leash or penned up in a cage.
They barked at nearly everyone who came in and out of the place. That may be because they wanted attention. Massages at Panda took place in converted rooms with high ceilings. Things were relatively clean even if the lobby was not.
