Which one to choose in Mykonos
Two churches in Mykonos. Panagia Tourliani Monastery has 1 ticket or tour to book; Church of Panagia Paraportiani has no online ticket listed. The table and the two notes below put them side by side; the full pages have what to see, the ticket and the timing for each.
Mykonos, Greece
Entry is free with a donation box inside, and a small museum of vestments and icons occupies a room off the courtyard. The monastery is in Ano Mera, the inland village about seven kilometres from Mykonos Town, reached by local bus for a couple of euros, by taxi or by hire car and quad, which is how most visitors on Mykonos get around. Island highlights tours include the monastery with the beaches and the lighthouse and cost a moderate amount.
Mykonos, Greece
The Church of Panagia Paraportiani stands at the edge of Mykonos Town, at the entrance to the Kastro district, near Little Venice and the windmills, and it is one of the most photographed buildings in Greece. The exterior can be seen at any time for free, and it is the reason most people come; the interior of the churches is opened only occasionally, and hours are irregular.
