Salt evaporation ponds, also called salt pans, are shallow artificial ponds designed to produce salts from sea water. The seawater is fed into large ponds and water is drawn out through natural evaporation which allows the salt to be subsequently harvested.

Pilgrims that are about to finish the Route of Santiago can see the cathedral and the city of Santiago itself for the first time when they arrive to the Monte do Gozo (Hill of Joy), named so because of the joy the pilgrims experiment when seeing the end of the Route after many days of pilgrimage. This is the view at night, with a couple, next to the statues, watching the cathedral illuminated right below the moon.

Ir-Rabat (Victoria) is the capital city of the island of Gozo. The name Victoria was given to the town in 1887 in honour of the famous British Queen’s Golden Jubilee. At the same time, the town was raised to the status of a city becoming officially known as Citta’ ir-Rabat (Victoria).
The Cittadella contains churches and other historic buildings, including the Cathedral of the Assumption, which was built between 1697 and 1711 on the site of an earlier church. The citadel has been included on Malta's tentative list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1998.

I return from my first ever visit to the Beautiful Island of Malta, I failed on my research, all I wanted to shoot was the Azure Window, seems I was 3 years late, sad to hear it had fallen into the sea.
One of these things I never wondered about is "where our salt is from"???
I bought a small bag of sea salt from these beautiful salt pans in the Island of Gozo. I could swear every meal I cooked tasted better when using it! I ran out of my stash long time ago, but now I stick mainly to sea salt instead of simple table salt. Every time I do, this image pops into my head :) :)
