Ledra Street is the main shopping thoroughfare of old Nicosia, a pedestrianised lane lined with fashion stores, shops and cafes running through the heart of the walled city to the crossing point into the northern side. Busy and lively, it mixes international brands with local shops and street life. Strolling and shopping along Ledra Street, with the unusual experience of walking up to the dividing line, is a quintessential part of a visit to the capital.
