🧳 Özet: Valletta, the capital of Malta, is a fortified UNESCO World Heritage city perched on a peninsula between the Grand Harbour and Marsamxett Harbour. Founded in 1566 by the Knights of St. John, its streets are lined with Baroque architecture, historic churches, and museums. Key attractions include St. John's Co‑Cathedral with its famous Caravaggio paintings, the Grandmaster's Palace, the Upper Barrakka Gardens with panoramic harbour views, and the National Museum of Archaeology. The city is compact and walkable, offering a blend of history, culture, and Mediterranean seaside ambience.
👉 İpucu: Buy a Valletta City Pass (or a combined Malta Pass) to skip ticket lines at major sites and get unlimited public transport on the island. Wear comfortable shoes for the steep, cobbled streets, and visit the Upper Barrakka Gardens at sunset for the best light on the harbour.
🔆 Öne çıkan: St. John's Co‑Cathedral – a masterpiece of Baroque art, housing Caravaggio’s 'The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist' and an ornate marble floor, is the must‑see landmark that epitomises Valletta’s rich cultural heritage.
