The Municipal Market |
The Municipal Market in south Nicosia is located just a few streets east of Phaneromeni Square.
In 1964, when the city was divided by the Green Line, the original market, or Bandabuliya was located in the north, and therefore inaccessible to Greek Cypriots. This unimposing 60s building was built to meet the needs of the local population. The original market can still be seen over the roof tops of the Green Line, and since the opening of the border in Ledra Street, is no longer inaccessible.
Fruit and vegetables, fresh olives, feta cheese and dried herbs are among the products sold from this market.
Although open daily, probably the best time to visit is on a Saturday morning.
