Wow, what an amazing experience! I had a lot of fun and met some old friends there. It's worth a visit and I'm sure once you visited it you'll return next time!

It's okay, but not many stalls left. Take's few minutes to look around. Lot's of history associated and information boards available. Wouldn't make a special journey to see it

Two main entrances. A courtyard with ground and first level.
A nice spot to have a drink or have food. Small artisan shops on the top floors.

A beautiful place and well worth the stop when in Nicosia.
Very interesting past—placards explain its history.
If you’re looking for tiny gifts, be sure to check out the shops within the venue. Many nice items at good prices!

This old building was nice to see, but all that is inside is a cafe and some not exciting tourist shops. One shop had a few bits of artisan basketware. If you are in the north of the city then visit, but really not very exciting

Full of charm and atmosphere. The rooms, which are now tiny craft shops and contain items made by local people are atmospheric and the there are restaurants in the centre, which make a lovely place to sit and watch what's happening.

Interesting place which would be a lot better if the stores were actually open. Late April doesn't seem to be a full trading period, over 80% of the place was closed.

sorry if someones wallet was stolen but I felt very safe there. People were friendly. It's an short easy walk from the border crossing, the building is beautiful. There are many interesting historic buildings on that side of the border , there were maps available at the border, Also good, inexpensive food
