Hello
I am hoping to go to Ledra Street and would be grateful if anyone could tell me the best place to park, directions from the roundabout with the big Nike building and anything else you think may be relevant. Thanks

Re: Direction to Ledra street
From a previous posting:
From the roundabout at the end of the Girne to Lefkosa dual carriageway continue toward the city-centre.
- Go over the hospital roundabout and also straight at the next three traffic-lighted junctions. At the Merit Hotel, do NOT fork left ... again keep going straight
- 500 metres after the Merit Hotel you come to the junction with the "bent-fingers-statue" in the middle of it ... yet again keep going straight.
- After passing the "bent-fingers-junction" you will find yourself on a straight & very wide one-way street.
- After 400 metres of this "wide, straight one-way street", you will come to a T-junction, which will have the words "Mehmetçik Gazinosu" written in front of you.
- At this T-junction turn right onto another wide one-way street, but this one gradually bends to the right.
- From here, take the second left through the historic Girne Gate.
- Drive for about 150 metres along that road in the direction of the Venetian Column.
- At the column, fork left.
- You should now see the Saray Hotel in front of you.
- Just before you reach the hotel I advise you to turn left into a narrow street.
- After about 50 metres, you'll see a car-park on your left. I advise you to park there.
- Walking out of the car park turn left.
- Walk along this road keeping the historic Büyuk Han to your right.
- After passing Büyuk Han you will come across the narrow Arasta Sokak ... famous for its fabric shops.
- Walk the 40 metres along Arasta Sokak, and at the end of it, you are less than 30 metres from the Ledra Street crossing.

Re: Direction to Ledra street
This bit has changed slightly. Go past the Saray Hotel (on your right) and take the next left turn that allows you to turn left into the one-way system. At the end turn left (the Buyuk Han is now on your right) and at the end bear left and the carpark is in front and to your right.paul90 wrote:- You should now see the Saray Hotel in front of you.
