Sights not to miss in Malta

Stories about knights and pirates, medieval nobility, a marvellous climate and a history dating back centuries. Malta is a magical destination!

• The capital of Valletta is a vast outdoor museum, where the whole city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site reflecting all that has passed over it through the centuries. Wander round the alleyways and explore its every corner. Visit Saint John's Cathedral and admire Caravaggio's masterpieces. Stop in at the Grandmaster's Palace, which now houses the Office of the President of Malta.
• Mdina, the "Silent City", is in the centre of the island. The former capital of Malta, the magnificent walled city was first inhabited in 700 BC by the Phoenicians, and was fortified by Arab and Norman conquerors. Though the city is now deserted, it comes alive with visitors who come to admire the palazzi along the stone-paved paths.

It is one of the most impressive archaeological monuments in the world. Bones from 7,000 individuals, dated between 3600 to 2500 BC, were found in its chambers.
