Since the 1950s, Mykonos has successfully built itself as Griechenland’s glamorous destination. Its natural beauty, cosmopolitan character and incredible nightlife have earned it a name of one the “must-see” islands in the world. It is the Greek destination where visitors love to be pampered, love to party and to enjoy the top-rated restaurants, shop and boutiques and experience some of the most luxurious accommodation in the country.
Mykonos also has its traditional side. Whitewashed windmills and small Orthodox churches dot the Cycladic island. Its main town called Chora is one of the most well-preserved traditional villages in Griechenland. It features stunning buildings and gorgeous bougainvillea plants lined narrow pathways that are a pleasure to explore or “get lost” in. The nearby island of Delos is a fantastic UNESCO World Heritage Site. It’s a sprawling ruin that was once a magnificent ancient Greek city and the mythical birthplace of Apollo und Artemis.
