Itinerary
Lamp lit by night and referred to as "the silent city", Mdina is fascinating to visit for its timeless atmosphere as well as its cultural and religious treasures.
The town is well established on the tourist map due to its archaeological and historical sites: The Roman Villa (Domus Romana), catacombs, St. Paul's Grotto and the fine churches and monasteries.
The Mosta Dome is perhaps the most impressive church in Malta, with its massive rotunda, that is the third largest in Europe.
The location of this fascinating natural grotto combines with sunlight and the surrounding chain of caves to reflect the phosphorescent colours of the submerged flora and the deep dark shade of blue of the sea.
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.

Salah came on time, very well organized of the day, there were cruise ship in town, some of the areas were packed with buses, but he always navigate around, manage to drop me off at the front.
