MDINA and RABAT, MALTA

2022 Oct. 07, Fri, 70F -- ust wanted to share this happy day trip we did to Mdina and Rabat from Valletta, Malta. With careful and forward planning, we managed to cover both beautiful places in about 4 hours on foot. Mdina is a small, fortified hilltop city best known as the "Silent City," with a low census of about 250 people living within the walls. It is a major tourist attraction in itself, making it a lovely place to visit during the day. Once tourists start to leave, quietness prevails, reinforcing its name as the Silent City. Stepping through Mdina's medieval gates and narrow alleyways is like stepping back in time. Rabat, on the other hand, is a working town just outside the fortified city of Mdina. Nevertheless, Rabat boasts some of Malta's important and interesting ancient palaces and Christian sites worth visiting. We thoroughly enjoyed this short day trip and hope you will too.
