Little Venice, or Alefkandra, is one of the most charming and romantic spots in Mykonos. Nestled between Kastro and Skarpa, this picturesque neighborhood is famous for its colorful houses built right on the edge of the sea, with wooden balconies that seem to hover above the waves.
The Church of Panagia Paraportiani is one of the most important religious and architectural landmarks of Mykonos, located in the area of Kastro, near the old harbor. Its name, meaning “Our Lady of the Side Gate,” comes from its position next to the entrance of the medieval castle that once protected the town.
The Windmills of Mykonos are among the island’s most iconic landmarks, symbolizing its rich history and Cycladic charm. Standing proudly by the sea in Chora, the famous Kato Mili complex is instantly recognizable, offering panoramic views of the Aegean and the picturesque Little Venice area.
