5The Windmills of Mykonos

Mykonos, known for its cosmopolitan nightlife and beautiful beaches, is also famous for its iconic windmills. These white, cylindrical structures with their thatched roofs are a symbol of the island and have stood for centuries, once used to grind grain.

The windmills are located just outside of Mykonos Town, and from here, visitors can enjoy stunning views of the town and the surrounding sea, especially at sunset.

Why it’s a highlight: The windmills are a striking reminder of the island’s past and offer one of the best spots to take in the island’s beauty.
