Fast Facts

The name ‘Cyclades’ is derived from the Greek word kiklos, meaning circle. It described how these islands encircled the sacred island of Delos.

The primary material used to whiten the walls of the homes, restaurants, museums, and shops of these islands was lime, an inexpensive local material.

The blue and white buildings on Mykonos mirror the colors of the Greek flag, as well as the vivid blue of the surrounding seas.
