Description

Malta, independent republic of the Commonwealth of Nations, consisting of a small group of islands - Malta, Gozo, comino, Kemmunett, and Filfla - located in the Mediterranean Sea, south of Sicily. The area of the largest island, Malta, is 246sq km (95 sq mi). Gozo covers 67 sq km (26 sq mi), and Comino has an area of 3 sq km (1.1 sq mi). the total area is 316 sq km (122sq mi). The capital and chief port is Valletta.

Nowadays, we live in two islands with a total population of around 380 000. Our everyday life is as urban as it may be rural. Gozo, the second largest island in this archipelago, is perhaps taking it easier than mainland Malta to integrate into the more Western city-life. On this island, one can still experience all forms of sights, sounds and smells originating from otherwise long gone times. Legend, folklore and the quotidian way of life intertwine with one not being able to stand out from the other.

Gozo is a island that manifests its seven thousand years of history with pride. The megalithic temples in Ggantija, the underground burial at the Stone Circle and the dolmens and cart ruts in the Ta’ Cenc area are a few of the visible manifestations of an early sophisticated civilisation. The more modern temples, dominating the winding village cores with majestic domes and baroque splendour give proof of the islanders’ centuries’ long commitment towards faith, art, the mortal and the divine.
