 If you are breaking your mind on where to go for your vacation,
consider Greece.
This is a perfect place to have
a rest, since it possesses vast areas and various cultures, architectural
styles and landscapes co-exist there still matching the place.
No matter
how often you come here, every time you will find Greece as a new virgin place for
you. Classic Athens and coastal Attica, so
called Athenian Riviera are similar places, while the Rhodes
Island that is close to Turkey is something very different, as well as
Corfu located close to Italy.
Mykonos appears
to be a small island in white-blue color that is typical to the island of Cyclades range. It has become one of the
most desired destinations in the world. Blue sea and sky, snow-white houses
along the roads, with doors and blinds painted in rich azure color. There is one
single town on the Mylonos as such, named Mykonos, though it is simply called «hora»,
«a town», as well as on all Greek islands with a single city center.
The mills
are the symbols of the island, there are seven of them on the single place and
lots of pelicans. When walking in the city, you face the bay romantically named
«Little Venice», visit a café to adore the waves striking the colorful chalets
and sip some wine with the salty splashes. The pelicans are not sociable but not
that humble, they often dream in the corner of the café and sometimes they
stroll along the cafe stretching feet.
There are
no big stores in the town and you will see no famous brands and it is matters.
You do not need to go shopping for luxury costly things from the latest
collections of couturiers, but the only things to shop on the Mykonos is the
bright-color flip-flops, swimming-suits, summer clothes made from natural Greek
fabric, jewels from natural gems, silver and gold and other nice souvenirs to
get as keepsake.
One of the
popular souvenirs on the island is a blue T-shirt with the print that says «Good
boys go to heaven, bad boys go to Myconos». The print hint is quite transparent
here and holds the information since the Mykonos Island
is too popular among the sexual minorities. Moreover, there are hotels on the
islands that accommodate only sexual minorities ignoring requests of
traditional different gender couples.
On the other
part, this tendency makes the island perspective and attractive, the same as
the Ibiza in Spain, known in
Europe as the party place for everyone. In winter
season the island reduces its activity and almost dreams, while wakening up in
summer time to lead all-night active life to meet the requirements of tourists.
Light pleasure yachts cut the waves on the sea, while the youth drive the
rented cars and bikes, apart from island buses that run till late.
the Psara
Beach is the place to room the most respectable public which is famous for its
rich and costly services, and once you visit the beach, you have to pay a
couple of Euros only to rent a beach bed and an umbrella tent. And we can just guess
the price of the dinner at the Nammos restaurant on the beach, the place where the
national culture of Greece matches with fashionable European elegance: the bins
with cubed ice with scaring claws of the sea inhabitants, languishing lazily
smoking ladies lie on the chaise longue on the open terrace relaxing between
the dish shifting, and skilful Greek old men dance sirtaki with the glass of
uzo on their heads and their sons tear the smoky and hot mutton with bare hands
which is also the attractive show.
A room in the
high class hotel may take you to three thousand Euros per day. The rent of
villa with several bedrooms, living-rooms and a air of swimming rooms will take
around eight thousand Euros. There are less expensive housing on the island as
well, though when you are close to the wealthy and powerful people, you will
feel excited, don't you?
On the top
of it, the island is too small and narrow to avoid them when dancing on the
beach party laughing and pouring with champagne.
