10. St John's Co-Cathedral
St. Johns Co-Cathedral, located in Valletta, was built by the Knights of Malta between 1573 and 1578. The Church was designed by the Maltese military architect Glormu Cassar who designed several of the more prominent buildings in Valletta. The church is considered to be one of the finest examples of high Baroque architecture in Europe and one of the world's great cathedrals.
9. Hal Saflieni Hypogeum
The Hypogeum of Paola, Malta, literally meaning underground in Greek, is a subterranean structure dating to the Saflieni phase (3000-2500 BC) in Maltese prehistory. Thought to have been originally a sanctuary, it became a necropolis in prehistoric times and the remains of more than 7,000 individuals have been found. It is the only known prehistoric underground temple in the world.
8. Vittoriosa's Backstreets
The historic Vittoriosa Waterfront contains the former Palace of the General of the Galleys and the Order of St John's treasury. The area was refurbished in the early 2000s, and both buildings are used for other activities: the former is now a casino, while the latter is home to the Malta Maritime Museum.
7. Comino
Comino is an island of the Maltese archipelago between the islands of Malta and Gozo in the Mediterranean Sea, measuring 3.5 square kilometres in area. Named after the cumin seed that once flourished in the Maltese islands, Comino is noted for its tranquility and isolation. It has a permanent population of only four residents.
6. Hagar Qim & Mnajdra Temples
Ħaġar Qim is a megalithic temple complex found on the Mediterranean island of Malta, dating from the Ġgantija phase (3600-3200 BC). The Megalithic Temples of Malta are among the most ancient religious sites on Earth, described by the World Heritage Sites committee as unique architectural masterpieces.
5. Mdina & Rabat
L'Mdina means fortified place in Arabic and was first created as such by the Romans when they separated it from the rest of the town which became Rabat and fortified it. This place was already the principal settlement of Malta however since Phoenician times and hence can claim a heritage of 3000 years.
4. Sunday Lunch in Marsaxlokk
Marsaxlokk is a picturesque fishing village on the south-east side of Malta, it has an ancient history being the site of a Roman temple dedicated to the goddess Juno, but no ancient remains are visible. It is rare as a Maltese seaside village in that it has no modern buildings such as hotels spoiling it and none of the traditional housing has as of yet been destroyed to make way for prefab rental apartments. On Sundays there is a fish market where one can get the best fish available, a particular local favourite is the Lampuki.
3. Victoria
Victoria is the capital of Gozo. Victoria is the name given in 1897 by the British government on the occasion of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, at the request of the Bishop of Malta, Mons. Sir Pietro Pace. However Gozitans still often refer to it by its old name, Rabat. The area around Victoria, situated on a hill near the centre of the island, has been settled since Neolithic times.
2. Valletta
Valletta is the capital of the island nation of Malta. A harbour city, Valletta preserves much of its 16th century architectural heritage built under the Hospitallers. Valletta was one of the earliest sites inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Referred to colloquially as Il-Belt (The City), it takes its name from its founder, Grandmaster Jean Parisot de la Valette.
1. Azure Window, Dwejra
The Azure Window is a Limestone natural arch on the Maltese island of Gozo. It is situated near Dwejra Bay on the Inland Sea.

Birgu (Vittoriosa) - Malta
Birgu na Malcie
Amazing MALTA-Vittoriosa
Vittoriosa, is an old fortified city on the south side of the Grand Harbour in the South Eastern Region of Malta. The city occupies a promontory of land with Fort Saint Angelo at its head and the city of Cospicua at its base. Birgu is ideally situated for safe anchorage, and over time it has developed a very long history with maritime, mercantile and military activities.
Birgu ( Vittoriosa) is a very old locality with its origins reaching back to medieval times. Prior to the establishment of Valletta as capital and main city of Malta, military powers that wanted to rule the Maltese islands would need to obtain control of Birgu due to its significant position in the Grand Harbour. In fact, it served as the base of the Order of Saint John and de facto capital city of Malta from 1530 to 1571. Birgu is well known for its vital role in the Great Siege of Malta of 1565.
In the early 20th century, Birgu had a population of over 6000 people. Over the years this decreased, and the population stood at 2,629 in March 2014.Wikipedia

MALTA WALK | GRAND HARBOUR YACHT MARINA at Birgu
A walk round the MALTA GRAND HARBOUR MARINA and Vittoriosa Yacht Marina in Birgu, Malta. Very close to Valletta and home to some amazing Malta Yachts!
This walk around Malta Grand Harbour to have a look at the amazing yachts was recommended to us by our friends in Malta who took us along this walk and explained where we were, the history behind the grand harbour and the yacht marina.
We walk down Xatt Il - Forn past the Malta Maritime Museum as well as the restaurants you can find on the side of the harbour, and of course all the beautiful (and very expensive) yachts!
If (like me) it's your first time to Malta and you're on google searching for Things to do in Malta this might not even come up but we'd highly recommend grabbing a friend or two, heading down to The Grand Harbour at Birgu and just wandering around in the sunshine.
I hope you enjoy this short walk along the harbourside here at the Vittoriosa Yacht Marina and Grand Harbour. Please subscribe to my channel for more travel videos
