The other guy looks like he copied his review from a guidbook, or maybe he writes them. I'm not going to do that, I'm going to tell you what i remember and waht I experienced. In 1997 when I was 18 I went on myt last family holiday with my younger brother who was 16 and my parents to Malta. We stayed in St Julians Bay and to make a difference from sitting by the pool all day we took a day trip to the capital, Valleta. We got there by bus which was air conditioned (No Windows!!), it only tok us half an hour and the fare was very cheap. When we arrived at the bus station in Valletta we found ourselves in a market which was very interesting. The city itself is very old and the buildings look to be at least 100 years old if not older, the streets are also very narrow. This is made even more so by the presence of market stalls in all the main streets which adds to the congestion. there is ver little traffic about, all you have to woory aboput is other people. The seafront has great stone walls which I think are fortresses to protect the island from invasion, these are probably left over from the times of Napolean and the Second World War. The other streets are even smaller but don't have market stalls and so do seem larger. There are plently of cafes to eat at and they offer good food at reasonable prices. The one famous building we visited was thge old island governors mansion when from when it used to be a British Colony. This has now become the President's Residence and we actually saw him as his limo pulled up with lots of security. It didn't seem like the home of a President though, it just seemed like a museum, we just walked in with no sign of any security. It is a very nice city but only worth a day trip from wherever you are staying.
