Mykonos, Greece

Mykonos looks like a scene straight from a postcard: Whiter-than-white houses with brilliant blue shutters, vibrant bougainvillea, and a blue harbor bathed in warm sunlight. Iconic 16th century Venetian windmills stand in a row, their paddles spinning in the wind. Mykonos is vibrant and cosmopolitan, with a penchant for all-night parties and hedonistic good times. The island originally gained popularity from visits by Aristotle Onassis and Jackie Kennedy. If the traveller is looking for fine linen garments in vibrant pastels Mykonos is a shopping paradise.
