About Malta
Situated in the centre of the Mediterranean, the Maltese islands are one of the most
interesting and unique destinations one can think of. Due to its strategic location, it has been the subject of many different foreign powers and empires for thousands of years, so much so that it boasts the oldest free-standing temples in the world.
When considering their small size, it is amazing how steeped in history the islands are, and one could easily get lost following trail after trail or visiting one attraction after another.
From the ancient Phoenician temples, to the Arabic influence on language, farming and architecture, as well as the Knights’ fortresses and fortified cities, it is no wonder that Malta boasts one of the most culturally rich histories one could find.
Apart from its culture and history, one must not forget the almost-year-round gentle and warm climate, which also attracts millions of tourists and visitors each year. With almost 300 days of sunshine every year, Malta’s lush and green landscapes, golden sandy beaches and foreboding coastlines and cliffs are truly a site to behold.
If adventure is not your passion, you could easily enjoy one of the many charming villages, such as the capital city Valletta, the old capital Mdina, the shopping mecca Sliema, or even a fishing village such as Marsaxlokk. Each town and village has its own character that’s waiting to be discovered.
