- Malta
You wouldn’t be the first if you wonder, awestruck, “Where am I?” The Maltese Islands, sitting in the middle of the Mediterranean, have been administered by so many nations over the years, it’s a glorious jumble of diverse historic sites and architectural styles. The Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans, Crusaders and, more recently, the British have all left their marks.
On the main island, the city of Valletta was built by the Knights of St. John, a Catholic military order headquartered in Malta for almost 300 years. It is the island’s hub of contemporary art and architecture – while also the site of 16th-century St. John’s Cathedral, which features a Caravaggio painting of John the Baptist. This mix of old and new carries on throughout the streets and out into the countryside.
As water is the focal point of many an archipelago, and Malta is no exception: yachts and speedboats whirl about the marinas and bays. Out of nowhere, secluded beaches surprise hikers. Underwater caves and wrecks draw a steady crowd of scuba divers to Malta as well.
On the tiny middle island of Comino, the Blue Lagoon beckons, a natural beach where you may spot dolphins and sea lions. On the Island of Gozo, particularly in the region of San Lawrenz, visitors while away the day wandering the nature reserves, ornate churches and sleepy fishing villages.
