Built between 1573 and 1577, this cathedral contains two masterpieces by Caravaggio. St John’s Co-Cathedral is a gem of Baroque art and architecture. It was built as the conventual church for the Knights of St John. This church is till this very day an important shrine and a sacred place of worship. It is also a venue for cultural events. The construction was commissioned in 1572 by Grand Master Jean de la Cassière to serve as the conventual church of the Knights of Malta and designed by the Maltese military architect Gerolamo Cassar. The church was dedicated to St John the Baptist, the patron saint of the Order. The oratory holds the biggest and only signed masterpiece by Caravaggio. St John’s church is administered by the St John’s Co-Cathedral Foundation responsible for the religious cultural heritage of the monument.

My husband and I managed to find a bus from Valetta, with the help,of someone who was making his way there too, for Friday prayers. It's only a couple of minutes walk from where the bus drops you in Paola. The mosque had prayer and washing facilities for both men and women and it has a lovely warm atmosphere. Added to that was the bonus of the local Arab families bringing along nag homemade food to see form their car boots in the car park. We managed to have a surprise delicious homemade lunch following the afternoon prayer!

A lovely historical church by the see. Balluta bay is one of the most picturesque place in Malta between Sliema and Saint Julian. We enjoyed listening to Christmas carols before they brought the representation of Baby Jesus to the altar then we attended the mass that was in Maltese; people were very friendly and it was a nice experience.

We went here with a Game of thrones tour, and seeing that several of the scenes were filmed here the place is a must if you can get here easily! The building is beautiful on it's own and the connection just made it that much better! There are several sundials and some of the original, more colourful floor can be seen in some of the rooms.
