What to do and see in Mdina, Island of Malta: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks

July 18, 2021 Misti Hsu

Graceful Mdina, the stately town known as the Silent City, holds court from the southwest corner of the captivating island of Malta. The commanding medieval Old City perches on its rocky promontory, its fortified bastions looming above the azure waters of the Mediterranean. This enchanting Maltese city offers a warren of narrow streets, populated by churches, palaces and gracious houses, punctuated by large squares and delightfully free of cars in its UNESCO-designated ancient quarters.

Great entrance to Mdina and impressive former moat now filled in as gardens. Very, very busy and pictures being taken constantly of the main gate/entrance. Game of Thrones connection!!

This land train is well worth going on, 30 minutes travelling around outside the city of Mdina and Rabat, the commentary is good and you see many places and views that you would other wise miss, we thoroughly enjoyed it and the driver is very friendly.

Greek's Gate

Reviewed By DTM56 - Cambridge, United Kingdom

The main gate is the way most people come into the old city but it is worth wandering around the side streets to find these other gates.
