“And therefore I have sailed the seas and come
to the holy city of Byzantium”

Mykonos: the divine island of splendour

Even from the early shadows of time, Mykonos was in the epicentre. A perl of an island opposite to the central island of cyclades; the sacred island of Delos.

The Cyclades, Cyclos, means circle in Greek; Islands in the Aegean archipelago. Named Cyclades because of their scattering around the sacred island of Delos.

According to Greek Mythology, Mykonos island was formed by petrified giants.

The mighty giants were killed and thrown around Delos island by Hercules. The moment the bodies of giants plunged into the aegean sparkling sea, they were transformed into rocks forming Mykonos.

Mykonos balcony: Delos, home of the delian problem

Doubling the cube, also known as the Delian problem, is an ancient geometric problem.

The Delian Problem owes its name to a story retold by Plutarch concerning the citizens of Delos, who consulted The Oracle At Delphi in order to learn how to defeat a plague sent by Apollo.

The Oracle responded that they must double the size of the altar to Apollo, which was a regular cube.

Given the edge of a cube, the problem requires the construction of the edge of a second cube whose volume is double that of the first, using only the tools of a compass and straightedge.

The origin of the name Mykonos

Mykonos was named after the son of the King of Delos, Mykonos.

In fact, the history of Mykonos in the antiquity was much connected to the history of the neighbouring Delos.

Nowadays, you can only get to Delos through Mykonos.

In  the prosper and devotional island of Delos, Leto was believed to have given birth to god Apollo and goddess Artemis.

The Mykonos vase, a pithos, is the earliest dated object (Archaic period, ca. 670 BC) which depicts the Trojan Horse during the Trojan War.

It was found in 1961 on Mykonos in Greece, for which it is named, by a local islander.

Middle Ages and Turkish Occupation in Mykonos

During the Middle Ages Mykonos came under Venetian rule and later on under Turkish rule.

In 1537 was when Mykonos came under Turkish occupation. The Mykonians offered their 22 ships, their 500 members of the crew and their 140 canons to the Greek Revolution against the Turkish tyranny.

A Mykonian woman prevailed as the heroic revolutionary figure of Mykonos: Manto Mavrogenous.

Manto Mavrogenous financed the Revolution, helped in the organisation of fights, participate to the Filiki Etairia (a secret revolutionary organisation) and managed to organise troops in order to revolt against the Turks in 1822.

When the greek struggle began, Manto Mavrogenous went to Mykonos, the island of her origin, and invited the leaders of Mykonos to join the revolution. She equipped, manned and pioneered at her own expense, two ships with which she pursued the pirates who attacked Mykonos and other islands of Cyclades.

After the Greek Independence, the economy of the island was completely destroyed and it lost all its ships. Later on, the island succeeded to reinforce their commercial power to rebuilt the economy using the textile, as the most important source of income for the families.

In fact, the textile of Mykonos was of such high quality that it was traded around Greece and abroad.

Tourism: the dawn of the Mykonos new era

Tourism as the precipitator of modernity, of modernisation and of widespread social transformation started to flourish in Mykonos during the early 1960s, when it became the favourite shelter for the artists, celebrities and later for the hippies.

The archaeological site of Delos became a great attraction and today, Mykonos has become one of the top tourist destinations in Greece.

The various classical ruins, ancient sites and other findings are closely associated to the history of Mykonos.

Mykonos Town notables

Mykonos Founding Father: Giannis Galatis

Giannis Galatis is a Greek fashion designer connected to Mykonos island.

Galatis was born in Athens in 1946 and descends from an old aristocratic family of Ithaca Island. He is believed to be related with Kapodistria family. Kapodistrias was the first Governor of post revolutionary Greece.

In the 60s Giannis Galatis started his journey in the fashion world.

With the help of Effie and Stathis Pantelakis opened a small industry making clothes, which soon expanded not only around Greece but also in Cyprus and France, USA, Germany etc.

Giannis Galatis was one of the most important Mykonians, especially in the 70s in both Mykonos and Greece.

He is actually believed to be one of the Mykonos Founding Fathers.

His personal life was as turbulent as himself. He has been married three times and has two children: Aeolus and Katerina.

Giannis Galatis Wikipedia article (Greek)

Petros Pelican of Mykonos Chora

Petros is the great white pelican, who is the official mascot of the Greek island of Mykonos

The story of Petros Pelican of Mykonos Town

The island of Mykonos has a beloved mascot —a real life Pelican.

In 1958 a wounded pelican was found off the coast of Mykonos shore by a local fisherman.

The pelican was nursed to health and remained on the island supported by locals.

It soon adopted the name “Petros”, as a joke between the locals, as “petro” in Greek means rock, stone but metaphorically Old and Grumpy.

To great disappointment by locals and tourists alike, Petros was hit by a car on 2 December 1985 and failed to recover.

Subsequently, three new pelicans reside around the main town of Mykonos. It is fun to try to spot them and capture them in a photo.

One, honorifically, is given the name Petros.

Mykonos Town famous bars

Pierro’s

Picture the 1970s. Freedom and love prevail. Vitality turns all things wild and sweeps everything across the earth.

Based on the paradigm of Western Europe, Mykonos in the late 1969ʼs was quiet and sparsely populated island but an inexplicably intoxicating energy dating back from the ancient times of Delos.

Italian American Painter Pierro Aversa

One of the first travellers to see this island as a gem in the rough, would be an Italian American painter by the name of Pierro Aversa. He was one of the most famous figures in European celebrity circles and immediately fell in love with Mykonos.

The Mykonos Chora Pierro’s Bar is born

Soon after, Pierro and Mykonian local, Andreas Koutsoukos, decided to open the chic cocktail bar, Pierros.

Pierro and Andreas entourage soon followed like a shower of stars, fashion designers, actors, and the rest of the truly glamorous coming along for the ride.

Baptized as Pierros bar, it first became known as an elegant cocktail lounge, where the elite met in the early evening and stayed into the night. 5 years later, yachts from all over the world , lined up in the port and from there those high society made their way to the doors of Pierros.

Pierro’s Bar became the choice of gay crowd who visited Studio 54 at NYC.

Since 1974, Andreas Koutsoukos has continued in the steps of his friend, and has opened for his clientele the neighboring bar, Manto, for the ultimate clubbing experience. For the past three decades, wild parties great music, drag shows, and a joyous atmosphere are what made talented artist, designers, actors and models from Greece and abroad put Pierros on the world map.

All of the legendary international drag Queens, including Carlos, have performed the most risquι and controversial acts there. For 35 years, Andreas Koutsoukos has pushed for equal gay rights in Greece. Subsequently, Mykonos became one of the famous gay resorts in the world.

The last summer that Pierro’s Club was open was the summer of 2005. Since then every body moved upstairs at Pierro’s café but the party is still the same.

Caprice Bar Mykonos: generations of love

Caprice bar, registered from “Newsweek” magazine among the 10 best bars worldwide, is located in the most beautiful district of Mykonos, called Little Venice.

The traditional architecture, the recognisable at first sight palette of colours, the unique flower and fruits arrangements in its characteristic clay vases, the paintings and the mirrors, the famous and innovative fruit sticks which decorate the legendary Caprice cocktails, the wisely iced shots, the unexpected, updated and …timeless signature music, the spontaneous sifting and warm, erotic atmosphere.

All these compose the phenomenon called Caprice.

Far and away from all the feeling of belonging. The valid forecast that something magical will happen. And so it has. Every night for 30 years in Mykonos Chora.

From the magical sunset until the crack of dawn, Caprice bar is the place to be.

Mykonos: renowed for its golden-sand beaches, unique Cycladic architecture, and restless party nightlife

The Mykonos Chora, also called Mykonos Downtown or Mykonos Old City is voted as the chicest and most cosmopolitan of the Greek islands.

Mykonos Chora is a patchwork of hip boutique hotels, elite local tavernas, and delightful modern-meets-rustic vibe. No wonder Mykonos Chora is a magnet of a varied mix of visitors.

Two natural elements have created a unique architectural mixture in Mykonos: the sun and the strong winds.

The rays of the bright sun and the ruthless winds -together with the Mykonian islanders agony for survival in merciless pirates times- have resulted in a unique, distinctive architecture:

Lightwashed, whitefaced, flat roofed, cube-shaped houses fastened to each other and split by narrow passageways.

Mykonos DownTown walk

First things first, stardust in the wind

The winds in Mykonos are called meltemia which are the strong, dry north winds of the Aegean Sea.

Mykonos’ meltemia winds blow from about mid-May to mid-September.

Winds are at their strongest in the afternoon and often calm at night, but sometimes meltemia winds last for days without a break.
Though it is sometimes called a monsoon wind, the meltemi is dry and does not correspond to an opposite wind in the winter.

Historically, Philip II of Macedon timed his military operations so that powerful southern fleets could not reach him: their ships could sail north only very slowly while the meltemia winds were blowing.

Matoyianni street

Matoyianni Street is the main street in Mykonos Town.

Mykonos Town was built to confuse the Pirates so one could easily get “lost” if you wander into the side streets.

These side streets boast interesting shops and restaurants, so getting “lost” is a positive experience.

You can then buy your “lost in Mykonos T-Shirt” at many of the shops as a souvenir.

The Windmills (Kato Milli)

Old Town in Mykonos is definitely a place you would want to be on your own and walk around. It is just an unbelievable place that one can’t possibly get lost and the whole fun of traveling is exploring.

While walking or wandering through Old Town, you will eventually end up at the shoreline and if you continue on your left until you reach the end, you will see the famous “windmill” view. A short, perhaps 15-30 min. walk, depending if you stop to look at shops and attractions along the way. A well-worth walk.

Panagia Paraportiani

Reportedly the oldest church on the island, Panagia Paraportiani Byzantine church was started in 1425 and finished in 17th century.

One of the most famous and most photographed churches on Mykonos is the Church of Our Lady of the Side Gate.

This Greek Orthodox church dedicated to the Virgin Mary is very unique.

Construction of three two-story church is an asymmetrical blending of four churches into one. These formed the base for the 5th church.

The church dates back to the middle of the 15th century. Its name comes from the word side door because is was once right next to the entrance of the Medieval castle that was located here.

Rarity Gallery

Rarity Gallery was established in the centre of Mykonos in 1995. It was the first in Greece to exhibit the works of internationally acknowledged contemporary artists.

The main goal of the gallery is to offer an original, selected and carefully composed aesthetic experience to strengthen the appreciation of contemporary art, while valorising the artists, their exposure and reputation.

The curators have applied their personal knowledge, experience in the selection process and the arrangement of the artworks in Rarity Gallery’s spacious, elegant but friendly environment. This is a synthesis that allows the evolution of dynamic relationships between them.

The attentive visitor can expect to enjoy a full sensory immersion in a constant dialogue between the pieces.

The exhibits vary between the works of younger artists and more established figures on the international art scene, as to ensure a broader scope, a full spectrum of the contemporary art movements and its various facets.

Each year, the curators organise approximately five solo exhibitions, while for the rest of the time Rarity Gallery offers varied works of its artists.

The artists featured, are unique masters in the fields of sculpture, painting, photography and other languages of visual arts.

They are represented in international museums, prestigious art fair exhibitions and very well known corporate collections from all around the world. Some of them are Julian Opie, Hunt Slonem, George Pusenkoff, Joana Vasconcelos, Carole Feuerman, Hanneke Beaumont, Patrick Hughes, Roberto Bernardi, Sean Henry, Hong Sung Chul, Jorge Galindo, Omar Galliani, Massimo Listri, Massimo Giannoni, Peter Anton, Robin Antar, Ilse Haider, Lluis Barba, Anke Eilergerhard, Michael Reafsnyder, Marc Sijan, Raphaella Spence, Tim Maguire, Zhuang Hong Yi.

Currently, Rarity Gallery is focusing its attention on a new generation of artists, such as Lee Jae Hyo, Jeff Robb, Francesca Pasquali, Ahmet Gunestekin, Valerio D’ Ospina, Jaime Valero, Marcus Levine, Javier Vazquez, Christian Awe, Johannes Cordes, Jan Davidoff, Martin Herbst, Alan Kingsbury, Matthias Kostner, Lino Lago, Julian Lennon, Robert Mars, Jan Mikulka who are creative innovators, shaping new trends through their approaches and their procedures that are always full of new aesthetical and expressive values.

The gallery has no fee to browse and admire. The art is for sale. It’s a quality venue and the prices to take home a piece are in the thousands of euro. Just don’t get serious about owning. Unless you’re prepared to make a big Rolex level investment.

Dio Horia

Dio Horia is an art platform & gallery for contemporary art and culture that was inaugurated in 2015.

Through a vibrant programme of exhibitions, residencies, events, publications and pop-up bookshops, Dio Horia gallery stimulates debate, experimentation, creativity and knowledge exchange with the audience.

Founded by Marina Vranopoulou, Dio Horia gallery supports artists in the development and exhibition of their work. In addition, Dio Horia gallery encourages a dialogue between the local and global art scene, promoting Greek and international art to a wider audience.

Dio Horia gallery strives to be at the forefront of cultural experimentation both in Greece and the world beyond, by presenting important solo and group shows by established artists. At the same time, a generation of young artists will take part in exhibitions and residencies.

Dio Horia engages in collaborative projects developed as a result of associations with artists, curators, non-profit organisations and cultural carriers. These fall into categories ranging from social, cultural and literary studies to music and performing arts. Through these collaborations, Dio Horia plays host to diverse viewpoints and aesthetics.

The name Dio Horia is inspired by a book by Greek architect Aris Konstantinidis entitled Dio Horia from Mykonos, where the phrase “Dio Horia” means both “two spaces” and “two villages”.

Besides its main location in Mykonos, Dio Horia gallerie’s activities move nomadically from one place to another, in order to study each location’s different social aspects, and therefore become the driving force behind the artistic practice.

These places are as popular as Mykonos to the non-art initiated public, and present, again like Mykonos, an interesting and dynamic social situation.

Municipal Art Gallery

The artistic past and present of Mykonos are spliced together at the Municipal Art Gallery in Matoyianni street.

The house of the Mykonean painter and artist, Maria Igglesi, is the Municipal Art Gallery, housing works of contemporary art, both of european and greek origin.

Sculptures, paintings, photographies and installations interchange, as the exhibitions differ every week.

You can always take a step into the art gallery and explore the next upcoming talent in European arts.

If you are an artist yourself, you can always make a request to the Municipal Gallery and exhibit your works.

Little Venice

It is best to visit though early morning like 9-10 am, wander around the white washed streets of Mykonos and have breakfast from the local bakeries.

Try to stroll around the area there and find unique spots and traditional squares with no shops.

Agios Nikolaos Church

Almost all of the Greek islands have a church named for Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors.

The one in Mykonos is near the sea and has a blue dome and white exterior.

It is a small church but has some lovely chandeliers. The ceiling is painted a deep blue and the tiled floor is black and white.

Originally, it was built on an islet in the port and later is was connected to the quay.

A pier around the church was restored over a four-year period of time, 1908-1912. There are benches outside of the church to enjoy the waterfront. Take a few minutes to visit.

Mykonos town Three Wells: Tria Pigadia in Greek

The wells date back to the 18th century and, until 1956, were the ones that brought water to Mykonos.

They are located outside Astra bar and are only five to six meters deep.

The reason for the depth is that they were built into sand and where the water was more accessible.
