One of my favourite fish restaurants on the island. It is a converted colonial period former police station, located next to the Valletta ferry terminal from where you can catch the ferry to Sliema. Views are also spectacular.

Verdala Palace is one of the official residences of the President of the Republic. It was built by the Knights of St John as the Grand Master's hunting lodge. The surrounding wood, known as Buskett, was also created by the knights for the hunting of wild boar and other animals. It is now a beautiful natural park with several protected species, and is ideal for hiking and picnics.

Arguably the most beautiful cathedral in Europe, it is a melée of Renaissance, Baroque and Rococo architecture unlike anything you will ever see. The Caravaggio's, Mattia Preti's, and other paintings, sculptures and tapestries by world famous artists are totally worth the token entrance fee.
