20의 미코노스가지 명소 & 주요 장소

We were here around midday in September and were able to take a look inside the windmill for €2 per person.

The first windmills were built by the Venetians in the 16th century. Today, 16 windmills remain on Mykonos. Some are located in the town center of Chora and can be visited by tourists visiting Mykonos. Other windmills have now been privatized or converted into accommodation.

The Boni Windmill is now part of the Mykonos Agricultural Museum. The museum is open in the summer evenings from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Some of the lions are also on display in the island museum.

Almost at the other "end" of the Mediterranean, Miguel de Cervantes (1547 to 1616) also created a literary monument to the technical-historical monument to the human spirit of invention and discovery, which conceived windmills a very long time ago: The most famous figure of the author, considered Spain's national poet and whose work can certainly be appreciated as world literature, namely "Don Quixote", always accompanied by his faithful squire Sancho Panza, fights in one of the fictional stories a - vigorous but of course hopeless - battle against windmills, in which the "Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance" believes he recognizes four-armed giants.

For culture-loving viewers, the series "Treasures of the World – Heritage of Humanity" presents several hundred programs (each lasting a quarter of an hour) on special sites from all continents and eras. Despite the diversity of the sites and objects presented, they have one thing in common: They are entitled to bear the title of World Heritage Site. The film about DELOS is available in the ARD media library (in German) =>> https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/delos-griechenland-folge-40/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS83MjIwMDM2

Beautifully renovated, but unfortunately not open to the public. Very nice view towards Hora. Located directly on the access road.

The Terrace of the Lions on Delos is an impressive architectural structure dedicated to the god Apollo by the inhabitants of Naxos around 600 BC
