πρὸς θάλασσαν δὲ τῆς Μυκαλησσοῦ Δήμητρος Μυκαλησσίας ἐστὶν ἱερόν·
The sentence is an existential/locative construction: “toward the sea there is a sanctuary of Demeter Mykalessian”; the sequence τῆς Μυκαλησσοῦ Δήμητρος Μυκαλησσίας is treated as a genitive dedication plus epithet, with attachment of the epithet somewhat uncertain.

κλείεσθαι δὲ αὐτὸ ἐπὶ νυκτὶ ἑκάστῃ καὶ αὖθις ἀνοίγεσθαί φασιν ὑπὸ Ἡρακλέους, τὸν δὲ Ἡρακλέα εἶναι τῶν Ἰδαίων καλουμένων Δακτύλων.
Infinitival reported speech: κλείεσθαι and ἀνοίγεσθαι are coordinated passive infinitives dependent on φασιν, with αὐτό as their accusative subject; the second infinitive has an agent phrase ὑπὸ Ἡρακλέους. A further accusative-and-infinitive clause identifies τὸν Ἡρακλέα as one of the so-called Idaean Dactyls.

δείκνυται δὲ αὐτόθι καὶ θαῦμα τοιόνδε· πρὸ τοῦ ἀγάλματος τῶν ποδῶν τιθέασιν ὅσα ἐν ὀπώρᾳ πέφυκε γίνεσθαι, ταῦτα δὲ διὰ παντὸς μένει τεθηλότα τοῦ ἔτους.
The first clause is a passive presentation construction: θαῦμα is the nominative subject of δείκνυται. In the second clause, ὅσα ... πέφυκε γίνεσθαι is a free relative functioning as the object of τιθέασιν, with ταῦτα resumptive; τεθηλότα is a predicative participle agreeing with ταῦτα. The exact scope of τῶν ποδῶν is somewhat compressed, but it most naturally specifies the feet of the statue.
