Named ‘European Capital of Culture’ in 2018, there is a wealth of must-see sites including the Grand Master’s Palace, Upper Barrakka Gardens and the Renzo Piano-designed City Gate.

Mdina

The golden-stone, fortified city of Mdina sits atop a hill in the northern region of Malta. Due to its towering walls, tranquil leafy streets, and distinct lack of cars, it has earned the nickname ‘the Silent City’. On a luxury holiday to Malta’s Mdina, stroll through its hidden streets and alleyways to truly feel like history is coming to life. All through the year, Mdina plays host to a variety of festivals and events, ranging from food and art to classic car shows.
