when you get to the end of the Ledra st pedestrianised area, and hit the main road, turn right and walk a few hundred metres.

You will see the 'Bus Station' on your left - on the other side of the road.

There are two buses that go to Mall of Cyprus / Ikea, and the chap in the information kiosk will point them out to you - just take whichever one is going to leave first.

Fare is 1 Euro per person, each way.

Don't do what I did and offer the driver a Lira - particularly if you get the same joker driving as I did - he had the bus in uproar - I still go red when I think about it...

To catch the bus back, wait at the stop on the same side of the road as Ikea.

Happy shopping!

Could you do me a favour and let me know the prices of the IKEA shoe cupboards please ? Hopefully the price will fall in with the allowance for crossing the boarder
