"A town in Gozo known for its authentic village charm, beautiful parish church, and the nearby megalithic Ġgantija Temples. It offers local dining experiences with fresh produce." - Le Guide MICHELIN

An absolute must see. Another amazing Neolithic structure and one of the oldest in existence. Rumoured to have been built by giants. The stones used we couldn’t build with today it’s truly impressive. Only 10 EUR to enter. Toilets on site and some amazing well preserved carvings to witness. Not very wheelchair accessible but an outstanding piece of human achievement. Far ahead of its time

One of tour bus hop off stops. The museum is small but nicely organized. The trail leading to the temple is well paved. Very pleasant view of the surrounding landscape and the megalithic ruin is beautiful. I have seen the photos taken from above that are very impressive not at ground level though. Nevertheless it is worth visiting.

Ġgantija Archaeological Park is a fascinating site, home to some of the world’s oldest freestanding temples. The well-preserved structures and informative museum offer great insight into Malta’s prehistoric past. Entry was €10 per adult, with no booking needed during the low season, making for a quieter, more enjoyable visit. The site is well-maintained, with clear pathways and stunning views over Gozo. A must-visit for history lovers!

One of the megalithic temples that exist across Malta. It was very impressive, but not as enjoyable to visit as Hagar Qim. Cost of entry to this UNESCO heritage site is €10 for an adult, or €13 with the citadel ticket (which also provides access to the nearby windmill). You enter to a museum, with a number of ancient artifacts and a 9min video about the archaeological site. Overall I was underwhelmed by the museum. You then go on a short walk to the temple, which (unlike Hagar Qim) is open to the elements. The degradation of the stones has led to quite a lot of scaffolding being put up in some areas. There is limited information at the site, but the large stones, placed in 3200-3600BC are nonetheless impressive to see. A short walk will take you to the small gift shop and exit. The entire experience took under an hour.

Firstly, you should consider buying the combo ticket so you can visit the Citadella in Victoria as well. There, the museum space is very informative and you can also visit the nature museum, the old prison as well as a great recreation of an old noble house. Regarding the actual temple, it's a short walk in a nice area before you reach it. The view is spectacular and the temple itself is breathtaking. A true monument of human history, you can still feel the temple's power and majesty 5600 years later.

Historical site with a lot of interesting stories to tell. We were accompanied by the guide so got a lot of the information. Really special to see 5000 years old structures.

Overall outstanding place to visit, probably the best megallithic site included in the malta pass. A very impressive museum at entrance Quite a few videos and audio points to break up the Reading. The temples themselves are also very interesting. Whole site also has a brilliant view but would be nice if barriers denoting edge of historic property were adjusted to allow for better pictures of landscape over valley Highly recommend malta pass for convenience
