About
Preah Srey Isanavarman Museum of Economy and Money (Khmer), commonly known as the SOSORO Museum, is a museum in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, dedicated to the country's economic, monetary, and trade history. Owned, funded, and managed by the National Bank of Cambodia, it explores nearly 2,000 years of Cambodian history through the lens of economics and currency, highlighting interconnections between political, social, and geopolitical changes and monetary evolution. The museum's name honors King Isanavarman I (also spelled Içanavarman), a 7th-century ruler of the Chenla kingdom, whose rare gold coin serves as a centerpiece exhibit.
