One of the three principal islands of the Maltese archipelago, the island of Malta is the largest of the chain. Its capital Valletta, a lively, bustling city with many buildings dating back to the 16th century, teems with cathedrals, palaces and forts. The impressive Grand Harbour offers a dramatic arrival. The top archaeological attraction is the UNESCO-designated Hypogeum temple ruins, a macabre, 5400-square-foot underground necropolis and the world's only underground prehistoric temple.

We took a bus here from Valletta and it was one of the highlights of our day. We wandered the narrow streets, looking at houses, painted doors, blooming flowers. There’s not much to do otherwise, though harbor views are great. As a bonus we took a water taxi back to Valletta for €2, a steal! It dropped us at Victoria Gate, where we could walk up to the main square.

This Renzo Piano masterpiece is essential to see. He managed to create an homage to both the geological and architectural aspects of this ancient and wonderful place... the city gates and the Parliament building are the perfect juxtapositions to launch Valletta in it's next historical period.

This is worth visiting if it’s your first visit to Malta as it’s interesting to see how the rock was cut out. In fact these are right along the seafront promenade not just at Zonqor Point. It’s interesting to see how salt was gathered many years ago.
