A visit to the timeless walled city of Mdina, followed by a stroll to Rabat, is an experience like no other.
Beginning with a charming horse-drawn carriage ride through Mdina’s narrow lanes and continuing on foot, the journey feels almost dreamlike.
With only around 80 residents—mostly ultra-wealthy—the city preserves its aura of exclusivity.
Ancient churches such as the magnificent St. Paul’s stand proudly within the fortress walls, while sweeping views from the bastions, once guarded by canons, remind visitors of its historic might.
The Carmelite Church, officially the Church of the Annunciation, lies close to Palazzo Falzon and is a gem of Baroque architecture, steeped in heritage and still part of the Carmelite Priory.
Adding to the city’s charm is even a classic British Royal Mail red post box, preserved in perfect condition, linking past and present in a quirky way.
Words fall short of capturing the magic here—every corner, every stone tells a story.
After soaking in Mdina’s beauty, a short 15–20 minute walk leads to Rabat, where time seems to slow.
Its relaxed vibe, narrow cobbled alleys, and centuries-old atmosphere spark the imagination, offering a glimpse into the endurance and evolution of those who lived here long ago.
Mdina and Rabat are places one longs to revisit again and again—each step revealing new layers of history, resilience, and quiet wonder. 💖📜©
