Mykonos is one of the most visited islands in Greece. The mythological story of Mykonos tells that after Zeus defeated the Giants, he threw them into the Aegean Sea. Their bodies became petrified and created the island of Mykonos. Although there are not many archaeological remains in Mykonos, it is advisable to visit its nearby Delos Island, since it is a sacred island in ancient times.
Chora, capital of Mykonos
A beautiful city, with its peculiar houses in soft color and blue windows that bear the sign of the Cyclades islands. There is another symbol of Mykonos which are the windmills that can be seen from the bars and restaurants of Little Venice.
The labyrinthine narrow cobbled streets surround small churches, shops, bars, restaurants and art galleries. The Kastro neighborhood with remains of an old castle and the Alefkandra neighborhood are other places that you should not miss.
Little Venice Chora
Little Venice, a small neighborhood in Chora is the most fascinating place you can visit. Built by the Venetians, it gives it a Venetian feel. It is one of the most symbolic places in Chora, having a Mediterranean architecture but with the variant that the first row of houses is suspended in the water. An excellent place to get lost in the different restaurants, bars and pubs with a romantic touch in the city.
