An Introduction to Malta

When it comes to European territories, Malta isn’t perhaps the first country that springs to mind when the topic of Mediterranean destinations comes up.



Don’t let this fool you though; the nation itself is quite lovely and historically significant as well. For instance, did you know that Malta has played a role in the ascension to power of great ancient civilizations like the Romans, Phoenicians, Hapsburgs of Spain, Normans, as well as the French and British empires? In short, it’s a region that has a story to tell, as well as a rich tourism industry.





In case you didn’t know, the British actually conquered the islands at one point, which of course lead to being granted independence by the UK government in 1964. Today of course, Malta is a member of the Eurozone and is among the more vibrant locales for taking a holiday.

This is due in part to Malta’s warm and tame climate as well as the large number of exciting activities which the island nation has to offer. In fact, those who are into one-of-a-kind experiences should really enjoy visiting some of the Megalithic temple sites in Malta, many of which are considered to be truly ancient (between 5000BC and 700BC!).


Today, Malta is one of the smallest and most densely populated countries on Earth, but nevertheless, also one of the most beautiful as well. Whether you’re trying to immerse yourself in the vibrant night life of Malta or explore the Malta attractions, its olden architecture and beaches, there will be plenty to do and see.
