Itinerary
Step 1
This is our meeting point and first stop!
Looking out over the Old Port and marking the entrance to historic Mykonos Town is Manto Mavrogenous Square the lively epicentre of the quintessential Greek Island destination.
Stroll your way down Matoyianni street
with the cute but posh shops, restaurants and the lovely stone covered pedestrian alleys and get the vibe of the island's town! A must visit area, perfect street for taking pictures, with beautifully decorated corners, blossomed bougainvillaeas in the streets, and even artistic decorations in front of the local stores.
The church
of Paraportiani dates back to the 15th century making it Mykonos' oldest church. It must have occupied hallowed ground because, as its name ("church by the gate") with its unique shape and location, the Church of Panagia Paraportiani still carries the history of Mykonos in and around it.
