Basilica of the National Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of Ta' Pinu

I love architecture, and places of worship bring out the best. You might not be religious, this place may not be your religion. Visit to admire the workmanship, the skill, and the dedication. One thing that you can not help noticing is the personal stories inside the various parts.

What a wonderful place to visit. The church is fantastic and the surrounding area is breathtaking. We weren't allowed inside - there was a service going on. But we could go into a back area, where there were proclimations of healing all over the walls. I will need to go back on my next visit to see the interior and learn more about the history (so interesting!) of the church.

Spectacular church, impressive size, the interior is decorated with beautiful and elaborate mosaics as there are no paintings on the walls but only wonderful carvings and sculptures. In the yard there are four great panels with fascinating mosaics narrative Jesus's life. Totally worth a visit.

Oh wow, what an utterly magical and stunning shrine!! Absolutely magnificent inside and set amongst the most breathtaking surroundings too. Very tranquil inside. Well worth the trip all the way from Gozo ferry terminal. There is a beautiful hill walk opposite to the shine which is adorned with beautiful white statues of saints which is also a must see!! An utterly gorgeous and heavenly attraction not to be missed at all!! The bus stop is right outside the shrine to its easy to get to Gozo town centre (Victoria) or the Ferry Terminal as needed.

The first time i visited a well-known Shrine It is located in a very quiet place surrounded by flat lands. Green lands. Atmosphere very likeable. Exterier and the Interier art works was fabulous. Well worthy for the visit.

This is a national shrine and a centre of pilgrimage for both the Gozitians and the Maltese.In this place, there was a 16th c. chapel dedicated to Our Lady of the Assumption. The church is not as reachly ornamented as the other churches of Malta and Gozo but it is a wonderful place for a quiet reflection. We are surrounded by beautiful sounds of gregorian choirs.

Beautiful yet very new church and surroundings. It is amazingly located and offers sitting opportunities in the shadow (which is much needed). I can only recommend stopping here for some pictures and to enjoy the view.

We really enjoyed our visit here, quick easy access via public transport. The area itself is absolutely beautiful, fantastic weather even in December! Well worth a visit.
