All of Malta, Gozo and Comino are, in fact an impressive ode to the architectural
heritage left to us by the Phoenicians; the Ottomans; the Romans; the Aragonese; the Knights of the Order
of St. John; the French and the British. Our cultural baggage is so heavy that no other country in the world matches Malta
for the concentration of so much history.
