The following TripReport snippet is taken from 2003/12 Merlin - Spending the Holidays In Cambodia

STREET 63

There are about a good dozen or so “houses” with signs like “barbour shop” or “guest house” or “restaurant””. In these places, they have VN houses and Khmer houses, but I couldn’t tell you which is which. As you enter what looks like a residential house, you are seated in a large sofa on one side of the room; on the other side are chairs with a dozen or so VN girls eyeing you. ST here (filthy rooms in the back) are $5 and LT (takeout) is $15-$20.

A fairly dark street with little houses that look like crappy, small markets with chairs inside occupied by Viet girls. The pimps are Viet and will try to flag down your car as you drive by. Not that many girls that are cute as they are mostly Viet and the facilities look run down. Not worth my time at all.

I always avoid street 63, but the Taxi driver i had, insisted he took me there,He had helped me out so i insisted that if he took me there he get me an 18 year old,
And was surprised when he did get me one,
Im sure they hide the younger woman from the Barangs

I read on another site that the brothels in street 63 had been raided and at this moment are closed

Redbus, this happens all the time, even when I was going there in 2002-04. The houses invariably open back up. It's funny, b/c competitors bribe the police to close down the busy competitor houses. On one trip, I recall there was a "public spanking" b/c the "cops" that closed down this busy house apparently came from another part of Phnom Penh and did not have jurisdiction in Street 63 AND these "cops" were citing the brothel owner for "environmental" violations (hehe). HOWEVER, the victimized "owners" WERE themselves allegedly the local cops with connections to a more senior "strongman".

Oh, and how about the shooting a few years ago between 2 khmers fighting over the karaoke microphone....Fascinating stuff...Only in Cambodia....I miss the place.

A driver took me to a brothel in street 63, but he did me a favour, so i went into one of the brothels,

I chose one of the girls and we went to one of the rooms, now i took my cloths of and brought them to the bed with me, but my boom boom insisted that i hang them up on the door hook behind me, so i took my wallet out of my trousers [pants] then hanged my cloths on the hook, now she wanted me to lay face down on the bed so she could give me a back massage, i did not want a back massage, again here she insisted that she should give me a back massage, what she was trying to do was distract me, so one of the pimps could put his hand over the door and go down my trouser pocket for my wallet
