The photograph portrays one of Mykonos most typical scenes: set restaurant tables arranged along the waterfront, with views of the famous windmills. White tablecloths cover the wooden tables, while chairs await diners who at sunset will crowd these venues to dine while admiring the sun setting over the Aegean Sea. On the left, white houses with blue windows and doors typical of Cycladic architecture flank the promenade. At the end, the four Kato Mili windmills dominate the promontory, with wooden blades standing against the sky. Some tourists stroll along the quay. This area, located between Little Venice and the windmills, is the heart of Chora evening life, where restaurants, bars, and shops animate summer evenings.
