The Mykonos Windmills are one of the iconic landmarks of the Greek Island, which used to be an important part of the economy. Nowadays, they are one of the most photographed sites on the island and a perfect spot for a panoramic view of the town and the sea.
This picturesque district is right by the sea and features colourful wooden balconies hanging over the water, resembling those of Venice. Many restaurants and cafes provide a perfect background for photos and relaxation.
One of the most famous churches in Greece, the Church of Paraportiani, is distinctive by its asymmetrical shape and composition of five different chapels in one. This white-washed church was built in the 15th century and is situated on the waterfront.
The Archaeological Museum of Mykonos houses a vast collection of artefacts found in various excavations on the island. The museum is located in the heart of the town and a must-visit for history lovers, especially those fascinated by ancient Greece.
If you have more time, consider visiting the nearby island of Delos, one of the most important archaeological sites in Greece. If you are looking for a beach, head to Psarou beach, the most glamorous beach on the island. If you have less time, skip the Archaeological Museum of Mykonos, and spend more time walking around the town.
