Malta: Best Places to Visit

Malta (continued)

Mdina and Rabat
Mdina, the historic capital of Malta, is a walled city given its name by the Saracens during their occupation of the Island. Known as the "Silent City", vehicles are prohibited in Mdina. The city's walkways wander through narrow canyons of interesting buildings.
Rabat is less interesting than Mdina but be sure to see the beautiful Cathedral of St. Paul: legend has it that St. Paul was shipwrecked on the island during the first century A.D.
