The town of Mykonos, or Chora as it is called by the natives, is quite impressive, due to its characteristic traditional cycladic style; the visitor is fascinated not only on the first visit. The town has preserved its atmosphere despite the invasion of tourism and the quick developmet. Mykonos is a typical cycladic settlement, with original characters bathed in the atmosphere of sun and sea.
The tiny white cubic houses reflect the sunlight of the Aegean, in a smart arrangement with total lack of needless features; the labyrinth of narrow stone paved clean streets, with white painted edges and countless bougainvillaea flowers all around, leads to the wind mills and to the numerous small churches hidden among the houses, ending up to the picturesque old port with the coloured boats and caiques.
