Valletta Excursions
The island's prehistoric temples are some of the world's oldest structures. The Hypogeum is a must-see (see Key Attractions) and a short walk from here the Tarxien Temples (tar-sheen) are also of interest. The most dramatically located temple is Mnajdra (im-na-ee-dra) on the south coast which shares its site with Hagar Qim (ha-jah eem).
It is quite possible to visit the neighbouring island of Gozo in a day from Valletta and a visit is highly recommended, but it is preferable to stay overnight to enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of Malta's prettier less commercialised little sister.
