Malta
Valletta
Valletta is a fortress city of the Knights — golden stone, harbors, and 7,000 years of history on a tiny island.
Valletta is a tiny fortified capital built by the Knights of Malta — golden stone streets, two great harbors, and a dense layer of history. Malta packs Neolithic temples older than the pyramids into a week. Use Valletta as the base; the whole island is a bus ride.
