  Donkey, the only way to go...
by easyoar
 
 

Cars are completely banned in the whole of Nicosia, so if you want to get around, you have to get yourself a donkey...

Actually no, this is not true at all. I have no idea what was going on here, it is pretty unusual to see someone with a donkey in the middle of Nicosia which is why I took the picture! BTW, If you look carefully, you can see the old Venetian Walls of Nicosia behind the donkey.

Car is a great way to get around in Nicosia, the drivers there are very well mannered and if you are British, they even considerately drive on the left too (a hangup from the days when Britain controlled Cyprus). I would go so far as to say that Nicosia is by far the easiest Capital city I have ever driven in, although parking can be a little difficult sometimes if you don't know where you are going.
