Have you ever wanted to explore an island that felt tropical and fancy at the same time? Malta is the perfect place for you! Surrounded by the beautiful, blue Mediterranean sea and home to St. Paul’s Co-Cathedral, Malta is a great place to take in different experiences.
Malta is a small island nation that is south of Italy and is part of the European Nation. The Maltese archipelago includes three main islands: Malta, Gozo, and Comino. Populated with approximately 520,000 people. People living in the Maltese islands speak mostly Maltese, English, and Italian.
Malta has been inhabited for a long time, going all the way back to 5900 BCE. The Maltese built the Megalithic Temples, which have become a big tourist attraction. Malta’s religion is predominantly Roman Catholic. There are over 360 cathedrals in Malta that will catch your eye with stunning art. Many festivals are held throughout the year in the islands. Their cuisine reflects its Mediterranean roots. Some of their traditional dishes are pastizzi: a flaky pastry you can fill, hobz biz-zejt: bread drizzled with olive oil, tomatoes, and any other ingredient you’d like to add, and fentaka: rabbit stew.
With Malta’s interesting history, cuisine, and style, I would say it’s severely underrated and not talked about as much as it should be.
