An Afternoon in Malta's Valletta



We arrived in Malta last April 24, 2011. Our hotel was located in Valletta, the capital of Malta. Although it was a five star hotel, I was disappointed that the rooms did not have Internet connection. I had to update my blog from the hotel's lobby and the connection was very slow that is why I was not able to post these photos immediately.


Valletta is a World Heritage site. The city is like an open-air museum with numerous Baroque architectures. It has many quaint cafés and bars that made the city one of Malta’s main tourist attractions. Let me share some of the photos I took on an Easter afternoon while walking around this World Heritage site.

  2. Nasa Malta ka pa? Check out La Cuccagna, this is a family owned pizzeria. Classmate ko ng gradschool yung may-ari- Carla Degaetano. Tatlong Filipina lang ang kilala nyan (yung yaya at 2 kaming pinay na classmates nya sa UWE, Bristol). She'll figure out who sent you there : )

  6. Hey Mike thanks for posting pics of Malta I went to school at the De La salle in Cottonera ( I actually graduated grade school there. ) The scenes brought back memories ! We lives there cuz my Dad's company assigned him to Egypt and the company's head office was there in Malta I had good memories as a pre- teener . Our house in the states is full of Antiques that my mom collected from there ! Me and my siblings plan to visit there next year god willing . Have a safe trip !

    Best regards

  7. The 1st and 2nd pictures somehow reminds me of the old infrastructures in Binondo =) Walking distance away from our bakeshop in Lavezares is Juan Luna's mansion which I never knew existed until I passed by it a few years ago.

    If only our government knows how to give importance to our historical places and learn to preserve our remaining old structures around Manila area...

    sad to say yes. Eh look nga passport renewal alone here in Singapore takes ATLEAST 2months or more. I applied for my son's passport mid March & I got a call from PH embassy that my son's passport will be released by June pa daw. What can we expect nga naman from our gov't?!
