The chief place on the island of Mykonos is also called Mykonos or Khóra. It is a charming little town of whitewashed cube-shaped houses, with numerous churches and several windmills, extending in a semicircle round a bay on the west coast. It occupies the site of the ancient city of the same name.
In the summer the town, like the island, is crowded with tourists.
The Aegean Maritime Museum in Mykonos has displays of maps, ship models and navigation instruments related primarily to the Aegean Sea.
