Learning The History Of Boutique Hotels In Mykonos

Many boutique hotels mykonos are close to one of Mykonos' legendary structures and a major island draw, the Armenistis Lighthouse. It is situated on a hill in Fanari's eponymous neighborhood that was once known as Vrykolakas (vampire) and has an intriguing history. It is said that the moniker was made up to intimidate kids into staying away from the treacherous cliffs. Even though it is now deserted, the lighthouse serves as a gathering place for island tourists and a haven for young couples. Staying in boutique hotels Mykonos and exploring the area, one can discover that the lighthouse was established in 1890 and is home to a unique device that was on display at the Paris International Exhibition at the initial stages of a project. The mechanism was based on a Fresnel crystal invention by August that was made specifically for lighthouse use. One of the first lighthouses to be outfitted with the cutting-edge technology at the time was Armenistis Lighthouse. Asking for more information from boutique hotels mykonos, the visitor can see that the story behind it is rather interesting. In the darkness, confined passageway between Tinos and Mykonos, the British ship "Volta" was laying a telegraph cable. Fog covered the area on the day of the shipwreck, giving the two peaks, Profitis Ilias o Vorniotis and "Anomeritis," the appearance of land separating from the sea. The "Volta" crashed against the rocks and sank on its own after the ship's commander guided it into the fictitious sea. After the shipwreck, it was decided that the tunnel needed to be lit.
