The capital of the island state of Malta, Valletta, has something for everyone. There are countless cafés, restaurants and shops for everyday needs in the old town, and lovers of luxury brands can also get their credit cards glowing. Valletta has been the location for numerous Hollywood films due to its medieval buildings. The kilometre-long promenade right by the sea is a wonderful place to relax with long walks. From the upper parts of the city you have a spectacular view of the harbour and the sea between Valletta and the village of Kalkara.
A walk along the promenade or a trip on the ferry from Valletta to Siema. The mega view of the harbour and the village of Kalkara from Lower Barrakka Park.
Many Hollywood film locations can be found in the old town of Valletta and the surrounding area. Coffee is comparatively cheaper than in Germany.

Enjoying early spring on a Mediterranean island. That was the goal. Malta seemed to be perfect for this. Nature had already awoken and the first streams of tourists were already pouring over the island. Undeterred by this, it was time to set off on a discovery tour. A hire car is essential. The highlight of the island for us was the old town centre of Mdina. You should definitely take a day to explore it. But the old town of Valletta should also not be missing from your itinerary. You can drive right up to the gates of the city by car and park there quite cheaply. We walked all the way through the city and then along the coast. There is a wonderful view of the harbour from there. Of course, we couldn't miss the Grand Master's Palace. However, I was surprised by the high entrance fee (€15). But there is an audio guide. If you are interested in the history of Malta/Valletta, I would of course recommend this tour of the palace.
Many historic towns. Breathtaking stretches of coastline with great bathing areas
St Peter's Pool - great seaside resort. Mdina old town

Valletta is a particularly beautiful city that scores highly with people who are interested in history. The history is incredible and is beautifully emphasised by the architecture. I particularly liked the city centre and the parks and gardens. The local food is phenomenal and there is something for everyone. Getting around is very easy by car and taxi, and Uber in particular is very cheap. On my next trip, I would try to hire a car, as getting around by bus is not highly recommended. Nevertheless, it is a very beautiful city that you should definitely visit at least once.
Valletta is a very beautiful city with very special architecture. It has super beautiful alleyways and extremely good food.

Valletta is a beautiful city with a very special culture and atmosphere. It's fun to explore the small alleyways with their typically colourful Maltese bay windows. The streets, some of which are endless and run from one end of the peninsula to the other, provide an impressive backdrop. The uniform style of the town with beige/yellow limestone buildings and colourful bay windows is very vivid Valletta is very easy to walk around, although there are some steep differences in height in the city. The pedestrianised areas are beautiful and offer plenty of shops and restaurants. I ate a local fish soup here, which was very cheap and delicious! The Upper and Lower Barrakka Gardens in particular offer spectacular views of Valletta, the sea and the surrounding neighbourhoods and are beautifully decorated gardens in themselves and are also completely free of charge. The War Museum in Fort St. Elmo is definitely worth a visit. Here you can learn a lot about the most important events in Maltese history and Malta's strategic role in the Second World War. The Casa Rocca Piccola is also worth a visit for €9.50. Here, several historical rooms and many associated antiques are on display in a noble pallazzo. You also have the opportunity to visit the air raid shelters under the building, of which there are many in Malta due to the Second World War. The rooms are beautifully furnished and fully accessible, you can even sit on the sofas. The Maltese Parliament right next to the main bridge into the city is also very interesting. An absolute highlight for me in April was the start of the annual fireworks festival in Valletta harbour, which I only discovered by chance. You could watch the hour-long spectacle perfectly from the Lower Barrakka Gardens and I have to say that it was the most beautiful firework display I have ever seen. There was also atmospheric live music and street food in the harbour area. I highly recommend the Maltese pastizzis, small puff pastries filled with cheese, chicken or peas. Very tasty, very cheap (80 cents) and available everywhere! Depending on the location, it can unfortunately take a relatively long time to get into the city by bus, as they have many stops and the traffic situation is generally tense. Unfortunately, you can't see much of the beautiful Maltese countryside in Valletta apart from the sea and the coast, so you have to drive out of the city. Overall, Valletta is highly recommended for a city holiday, the city is really unique and there is so much to discover!
The War Museum in Fort St. Elmo is well worth a visit and offers a good insight into Malta's turbulent history as well as a great view of the sea and surrounding neighbourhoods. The Casa Rocca Piccola Museum is a noble, historic pallazzo that is still inhabited by the family that runs it and serves as a museum. Many beautiful rooms and antiques are on display here, freely accessible and without annoying barriers, giving visitors a very interesting insight into the life of a noble family that still exists today.
For a great view of the surrounding neighbourhoods and bays, the free Hastings Garden right next to the main entrance to the city is ideal.

We visited Valetta as part of a day trip. Valetta is well worth a visit. In addition to many museums and palaces, there are great places by the water. There are also many small restaurants and cafés. It's easy to get around on foot. I would avoid visiting the city at the weekend as there are very long queues at the sights.
