Today’s excursion takes us to
the central part of Malta, dominated by the medieval fortified city of Mdina,
Malta’s former capital city. The narrow, winding streets, dating back to
medieval times, lead to the imposing bastions, commanding a magnificent
panorama of the island. On the way there, you will discover different styles of
architecture, including Siculo-Norman palaces and other baroque buildings of
great historical importance.
Time stands still in this
‘silent city’ which is a film-maker’s paradise. Leaving Mdina through Greeks’
Gate, we stop at the early Christian Catacombs in Rabat before proceeding to
the cliffs at Dingli.
*Entrance to the Cathedral & St. Paul’s Grotto is optional, entrance fee not included.
