This Mediterranean archipelago is isolated but revered, with an attractive sepia-toned European façade complemented with gorgeous natural sights, presenting a history stretching back to ancient times. The Neolithic subterranean passageways of the Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum indicate prehistoric inhabitation, and the Megalithic Temples’ primordial structures are a time-frozen treasure. Longstanding Maltese traditions, paralleled through the landmarks scattered across the islands and in the sea, have shaped Malta’s heritage and its beauty.
