The Driving Licence
|
| There is currently no common driving licence for the countries of the European Union. However, there are EU directives which specify the information that must be provided in the driving licence issued by the countries of the EU as well as the driving licence categories. Cyprus accepts the driving licences of all EU Member States. Nationals of other EU countries who are living in Cyprus may convert their driving licence to a Cyprus licence after 6 months time. In such a case, the old licence is returned to the competent authorities of the country that issued it. |

The "Petra Tou Romiou" (Rock of the Greek), or the Rock Of Aphrodite (as known in English), is a scenic place, located off the old Pafos-Lemesos road. Digenis Akritas, a legendary Greek hero, threw a large rock to the Saracen ships to secure Cyprus from them. This rock today stands as the Petra Tou Romiou leading to the above translation as the Rock of the Greek. It is said that this is the place that Afrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, was born, and arose thought the white sea-shore foams. |
