Mykonos
Depending on the season, the beautiful Greek island of Mykonos can be an island of party goers, of sophisticated travellers, of students, of "Greece for the Greeks" – what you experience depends largely on when you go. The most remarkable thing about Mykonos island is that through all the transformations and responses to changing fashions, it has somehow managed to hold on to much of its charm and self-respect. Mykonos remains active year-round, and in winter hosts numerous cultural events, including a small film festival. Many find a different, tranquil island of Mykonos during this off-season, drawn by the deserved reputation of Hora as one of the most beautiful towns in the Cyclades.
