In the view of the architecture, the prevailing color in the wooden doors, windows, balconies and stairs, as well as their balconies is something like trademark. You can finally visit little Venice in order to see the amazing sunset by drinking something at the small bars around.
You can find the Archaeological Museum of Mykonos at the old harbor of Mykonos, which was built in early 1902 in order to place the discoveries from the excavations at Rhenia.
Nowadays, apart from the findings you can face sculptures and funerary ceramics and 8th and 9th century BC vases from the Geometric period until the 6th century BC from excavations in Mykonos and Delos.
The archaeological museum also offers a large collection of vases, with the famous vase of the 17th century, which is the image of the Trojan Horse. But the most famous exhibit is the "Stone of Mykonos" amphora with reliefs from the fall of Troy, and clay figurines, jewelery and weapons.
