Day ten, Mdina and Rabat

The beauty of Malta is also that with 40 min of Bus you can go wherever you want! This are some pictures from the trip to Mdina and Rabat.








To note the cannon at the church entrance...








We had a good lunch on the town walls with this wonderful view... The bar name was Fontanella, next image.



The following pictures are from Rabat



We saw also the grotto where Saint Paul founded the first church in Malta, from an abandoned Roman prison.

Day eight, Saint Paul

One of the most important religious celebrations in Malta is Saint Paul. It is believed that Saint Paul during his voyage to Roma survived a shipwreck and stayed in Malta for a few months. Maltese are very religious people, and Saint Paul is the one who brought the Christianity to Malta.
I’ll share some pictures from the celebration in Valletta.
