Don't fight the elements - work with them.

This is a small fishing village about an hour away from Valletta, the capital. I rode on a local bus, absorbing the wonderful ambience of the Maltese people.

Not the greenest of country, Malta - but there are some green spots to be found. This was the back garden at our hotel.

Taken in Floriana, the suburb of Valletta.

 

And yes, that is a warship down in the water. It had a Spanish flag (though I assume the visit was of a friendly nature).

View over the Great Harbour of Malta, from Floriana (a suburb of the capital Valletta) towards Senglea (on the peninsula in the middle of the shot) and Birgu (on the peninsula to the left).

The karozzin is a Maltese traditional mode of transport consisting of a carriage pulled by a horse or pair of horses. It was once popular for general transit and is still used in ceremonies such as funerals, and as a tourist attraction. It is mostly found at Mdina and Valletta, and dates to the mid-nineteenth century.

Maltese Cross comes in a few different colours; most typically it's a bright red. This was the first pink one that I'd ever seen and photographed. Very pretty! (IMHO)

 

Thank you for your views and comments, they're very much appreciated. Have a wonderful weekend!

Estos templos megalíticos son los que mejor se conservan entre los sitios prehistóricos de Malta, con una ubicación sin igual sobre acantilados marinos.

 

Disponen de un centro de visitantes interactivo donde se explica la historia de las estructuras. Su antigüedad se remonta a los 5000 años.

 

Particularmente me pareció increíble comprobar como sus constructores pudieron construir y elevar esas estructuras entonces.
