Mykonos may be compact in size, but it boasts over 600 churches and chapels, many of which hail from the Byzantine era. Remarkably, it’s said that there’s a church for every family on the island! In Mykonos Town, you can find 60 of these sacred sites, among which Panagia Paraportiani stands out as the most renowned and photographed. This emblematic church, nestled in the Kastro area, began its construction in 1475 and reached completion in the 17th century.
