the most photographed places in Mykonos<\/strong>!<\/p>\nIt is a bunch of traditional colored houses, built by merchants and captains in the 1700s.<\/p>\n
Since these houses overlook the sea<\/strong>, they remind of Venice, that\u2019s why the neighborhood is called Little Venice.<\/p>\nAnother detail that recalls Venice is the labyrinth of narrow alleyways<\/strong>, originally designed to confuse the potential invaders. Oh, and there are the pigeons! And prices are high as in Venice!<\/p>\nHowever, the architecture of Little Venice is Mykonos has nothing to do with that of Venice in Italy. T<\/strong>he atmosphere is different<\/strong> too. Mykonos is vibrant and lively. Venice is decadent and mysterious.<\/p>\nWHAT TO DO IN LITTLE VENICE<\/h2>\n
It\u2019s easy to find something to do.<\/p>\n
Many of the traditional houses have been converted into shops, art galleries, caf<\/strong>\u00e9<\/strong>s, clubs and trendy restaurants<\/strong>.<\/p>\nIn particular, there are many bars and restaurants that overlook the old port, offering a truly enchanting sea view<\/strong>.<\/p>\nKeep in mind that it’s a very touris<\/strong>t<\/strong> area<\/strong>, so book your table in advance and don\u2019t expect food of high quality<\/strong>. In other words, don\u2019t plan a dinner at little Venice for tasty Greek food, but just for the experience itself!<\/p>\nThe best time to enjoy Little Venice is the sunset<\/strong>. The light intensifies the colors of the houses and the glare of the sea make everything more evocative.<\/p>\nWhat I suggest you to do is to spend your<\/strong> day on the beach<\/strong>, then reach Little Venice – preferably on foot or by motorbike-, take a walk along the seafront, watch the sunset<\/strong>, have a drink or dine in a restaurant overlooking the sea<\/strong> and finally go to a club. That\u2019s a perfect Mykonos daily routine!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
