Just a 45-minute boat ride from the vibrant shores of Mykonos lies Delos, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The radiant heart of the ancient Cyclades. Known as the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, this island was once the epicenter of a thriving multicultural civilization and bustling trade.
Delos is a treasure trove of history, with remnants from its habitation between 2500 and 69 B.C. awaiting your discovery. Wander through the ancient Agora, marvel at the iconic Terrace of the Naxos Lions, and explore the sacred Holy Lake. The ancient living quarters and theater offer a vivid glimpse into daily life, with the Houses of Dionysos, Kleopatra, the Trident, the Masks, and the Dolphins showcasing exquisite mosaics that are a feast for the eyes.
Don't miss the Temple of Isis, dedicated to the Egyptian goddess, and the impressive Roman water system and cisterns. The island's museum is a wonder in itself, filled with breathtaking mosaics, statues, and countless artifacts unearthed during excavations. Delos is not just a visit; it's a journey through time, art, and mythology.
