Malta, in the heart of the Mediterranean, is a melting pot of civilizations with a history stretching back thousands of years. The Maltese Islands offer an exhilarating contrast of colors: the azure of the Mediterranean, the mellow honey-colored limestone which characterizes the architecture, and clear skies. Everywhere you go, a unique historic sight waits. Temples, palaces, cathedrals, and forts provide a living history you can almost touch. The advantage of a stay on the Maltese Islands is that you can experience several holidays in one. The national language is Maltese, which is part of the Semitic language family that includes Arabic. English is also recognized as an official language, and many Maltese also speak Italian. The capital city of Valletta is a host to regular plays and concerts, as well as scores of exhibitions and street events. The Museum of Archaeology in Valletta houses an exceptionally rich collection of prehistoric artifacts. The Museum of Roman Antiquities and various catacombs are to be found in Rabat. In the fortified medieval city of Mdina, visitors will come across everything from Napoleonic troops to flower festivals. The Cathedral and its museum are not to be missed. The rural side of the Islands is fascinating, with charming villages and captivating folklore. With 365 spectacular churches, there are more than a few highlights - visit the Mosta church famous for its large dome – the third largest dome in Europe. Visit the church of St. Nicholas in the village of Siggiewi. For travelers who want to go around the island on their own, renting a car is provided at Malta airport. Don’t miss the renowned chocolate cake at Fontanella Tea rooms, situated right on the bastion with a spectacular view. For those who love the water, scuba diving is an avid sport on the Islands.
