| About Mdina: |
Mdina, Malta’s medieval capital and ex-capital city
of Malta can goes back to its origins more than 4000
years ago. Mdina is a fascinating to tour for their
timeless atmosphere and their cultural and religious
treasures. Mdina has had different names and titles
during the years. It was called Melita to the Romans;
Medina to the Arabs; and Citta’ Vecchia, the old city,
when Valletta became the means of support of the Islands.
None describe it better than its medieval name, Citta’
Notabile, the noble city.
Today Mdina has a quiet, restrained atmosphere in keeping
with its noble past. Lamp lit by night, Mdina transforms
itself into the ‘Silent City’. For a relaxed evening,
seek out the restaurants tucked away in its bastions
and palace courtyards |
