Malta’s capital city may be small at just 1km wide, but it certainly packs a punch. Overflowing with quaint architecture, this fortress city is full of charm and is best explored on foot. The narrow side streets are lined with tiny cafés and boutiques, while the main throughfares are home to international brands. Budding photographers will be in their element with jaw-dropping sights at every turn, including over 320 historic monuments, while culture vultures are spoilt for choice with a plethora of jaw-dropping churches, cathedrals, and museums to visit. The St. John’s Co-Cathedral is a must see for its stunning interior which is adorned with gold leaf, plus it's home to the only signed Caravaggio painting in the world.
