Visit Malta

The republic of Malta is a group of three islands which is just off the coast of Sicily. Malta, Gozo and Comino are rich in history and culture. They are found right in the middle of the Mediterranean, which means there is sun all year round, making it a perfect holiday destination.

Malta is the largest island with a population of about 400,000. The capital is Valetta and its population is about 6500. Here you can visit museums and see lovely historic architecture. The largest city on the island is Birkirkara with a population of 21,775. Of course, the main reason people visit Malta is the beautiful beaches and clear blue waters and you don’t have to go far to find them.

Gozo is the greenest of the three islands. It is covered with beautiful Mediterranean trees. The Ggantija temples are the most important tourist sight. They are 5500 years old, which means that they are older than the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. If you want to relax in the sun, go to Ramla Bay, which is famous for its red sand and clear blue waters.

Comino is the smallest of the islands with a population of just 8. There are a few buildings on the island, like St. Mary’s tower and two hotels, but no cars! It’s the perfect place for those who want a bit of peace and quiet. Comino is the right place for scuba diving. It is also a popular location for filmmakers and the 2004 film “Troy” starring Brad Pitt was filmed there.
