Attractions in Mykonos Town
- The Windmills From as early as the 16th century, when the island was a great producer of wheat and bread the windmills have been one of the most recognized landmarks of Mykonos. With a splendid view on Little Venice they are the most popular place to watch the Myconian sunset.
- Little Venice One of the favorite Mykonos attractions is located at the sea. This district is famous for its picturesque medieval two and three storey houses with their colourful wooden balconies and offers a fantastic view of the sunset. When in Mykonos you must definitely enjoy a cocktail in one of the many bars and cafes while watching this amazing sunset on the seashore of Little Venice.
