Itinerary description
11 02 2020
Valletta, Malta
This is walk 5 of a seven day Mediterranean cruise. There was some planning involved, and some places were left out. Also the walks were kept short due to a time limit for embarkation.
Of all the places with this Mediterranean cruise Valletta was my favourite. 3 hours cannot do it justice. You need a good weekend to catch it all, maybe even longer. I will definitely come back again and check out the whole island at some stage.
Here is a list of some of the places I visited on this walk.
The Barrakka Lift
The Barrakka Upper Gardens
The Lascaris War Rooms
The Triton Fountain
The City Gates
Republic Street
St John’s Co-Cathedral
St Paul’s Church
The Grand Harbour
The lower Barrakka Gardens / Siege Bell Monument
The War Memorial
Fort St Elmo / National War Museum
16th Century Palace - Casa Rocca Piccola
The Auberge de Castille
The Monastery of St Augustine
St John’s Cavalier Tower
The Hastings Gardens
Freedom Square
The St Catherine of Italy Church
The Piazzo Parisio
Porto Victoria
And the Valletta Waterfront.
This was just the tip of the iceberg. It’s a great place with a lot of history.
