It used to be at the junction for Ercan Airport, on the main Nicosia-Famagusta Road.

John the easiest way for me to describe where it is, is to imagine you are travelling from ercan airport on the duo carriageway, 1001 shop is situated on the slip way off this carriageway heading for Lefkoşa.

If you use Google Earth these are the co-ordinates

35° 13'05 16"N

33° 29'42 47"E

I got the wrong turn off twice!!!.Just pass it on your right,as you come off the flyover for Ercan,carry on to Ercan,then turn back on yourself,about 1/2 mile down the road.

Why dont you try the Chinese Bazaar in Lefcosa, they have pots and pans ,all sorts of household goods.



From Girne go to Lefcosa, at big roundabout turn right, at traffic lights turn left, continue along this road till you come to a roundabout turn left, and the Chinese Bazaar is on the left, plenty of car parking round the side of the building.

We bought some very nice china crockery at the bazaar at a very reasonable price, worth a look



1001 shop in Lefcosa. Go straight on at big roundabout from Girne, Go across major traffic light junction at flour mill, about half a mile road splits, take a left fork, and its 200 yards on the right.
