Valletta, The Fortress City, Citta' Umilissima, "a city built by gentlemen for gentlemen" is Malta's capital city: a living, working city, the administrative and commercial heart of the Islands. Valletta is named after its founder, the respected Grand Master of the Order of St. John, Jean Parisot de la Valette. The magnificent fortress city grew on the arid rock of Mount Sceberras peninsula, which rises steeply from two deep harbours, Marsamxett and Grand Harbour. Started in 1566, Valletta was completed, with its impressive bastions, forts and cathedral, in the astonishingly short time of 15 years, even more remarkable is considering the fact that mechanical tools did not exist at the time and the whole city was built entirely by hand.

The area is a popular tourist destination but is also a sought after residential area for local residents, with some of the most expensive property available in the country. Sliema is viewed as an elite area to live in and is loved by its inhabitants. With the rapid changes the town has seen in recent decades and the ever increasing problem of traffic congestion and parking, however, it’s undeniable that it’s lost a little of its friendly character and has fallen prey to highly lucrative property development.
Nevertheless, it’s one of the rare places in Malta that has a blend of hustle and bustle of city life, good food and recreation and a slight British tint with its pubs and easy going lifestyle.

The village of St. Julian’s is located alongside the Northern coastline of Malta, adjacent to Sliema and a few miles to the West of the capital city Valletta. Paceville is an area at the core of St. Julian’s which is known as Malta’s centre of nightlife and clubbing, offering a variety of bars and nightclubs for a great night out.
The area is also a popular place for dining out and for some of its entertainment venues. In Paceville you can find Malta’s largest cinema complex, a bowling arena, a shopping complex, a number of hotels and a small man-made beach at St. George’s Bay.
Although Paceville offers a few good restaurants, there’s a wider variety of choice in other parts of St. Julian’s as well, particularly Spinola Bay, which you’ll encounter along the promenade as you walk into the direction of Sliema.

City/town information
Mdina is one of Malta’s most popular tourist destinations because there’s no place like it anywhere. Sitting on top of a hill overlooking large parts of Malta, it’s a small town, rich in history and fortified by tall bastion fortifications. It’s filled with centuries-old buildings that have been well maintained throughout the ages.
Wandering through its narrow streets and alleys, Mdina genuinely feels like history coming to life.
Mdina was Malta’s capital city until the Knights of Malta arrived in 1530
The Silent City is an often-used name for Mdina, and you’ll understand once you walk around inside the bastion walls. It’s also known as Città Vecchia (“Old City”) and Città Notabile (“Notable City”)
The name Mdina comes from the Arabic word medina, which means ‘city’.

As a tourist destination, Marsaxlokk is popular for a few reasons:
The town offers a selection of the finest fish restaurants on the island
For the peaceful walks around the coast and harbour, as well as for its secluded and untainted swimming zones in the area around Marsaxlokk.
Locals enjoy the nightlife especially in Summer when you can walk the promenade, grab an ice cream as you go and let the sea breeze cool off the typical Summer heat.
On Sundays, many Maltese visit the Marsaxlokk fish market to buy fresh seafood from the morning’s catch.

Sightseeing
It’s very easy to reach by public transport and car, although parking can be a challenge on Sundays and public holidays. The beach is a popular location for sunbathing, swimming, watersports, and parties, especially in the evening when sunset admirers fire up their barbeques and enjoy a chilled-out summer night at the beach.

The Ħaġar Qim temples are beautiful, a masterpiece of prehistoric masonry, and considering they were built between 3600 and 3200 BC, still very well preserved. They were excavated in 1839 but old documents and paintings before that date confirm that people knew of its existence.

Officially recognised by UNESCO as the oldest freestanding buildings in the world, the imposing Ġgantija Neolithic temples, just outside Xagħra in Gozo, are over 5,500 years old–that’s 1,000 years older than Stonehenge or the pyramids in Egypt.
Thanks to an extensive preservation effort, the temples are among the best-preserved historical sites in the Maltese Islands.
