Korte feiten: Windmills are arranged on a hill overlooking the old port, each with a century of history of grinding grain. These facilities once supported local agriculture and trade, but today they represent a symbol of Mykonos.
Hoogtepunten: Walks through narrow streets will lead you to magical viewpoints, where you can admire the blue of the Aegean Sea through the wooden shutters of the mill. At sunset, the windmills create beautiful silhouettes that light up the sky with orange and pink hues.
Insidertips
- Comfortable sneakers are recommended due to the slightly uneven cobblestones.
- Ask locals about the stories of the mill mechanisms.
- Take photos from the west side, where the best angles for sunset are.
- Visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid crowds.
