For example, rambling along the walking trails of Calypso&#8217;s Cave, where legend holds the nymph Calypso kept Odysseus as her prisoner of love for seven years. Or lingering over fresh seafood with harbor views in the fishing village of Xlendi, known for its excellent swimming and snorkeling opportunities.<\/p>\n<div class=\"niceseo_gallery_wrap\" data-niceseo-gallery-fancybox=\"1\"><div class=\"niceseo_gallery_fancybox\"><div class=\"niceseo_gallery_fancybox_item\" style=\"baackground-image:url(https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-4.webp)\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-4.webp\" data-fancybox=\"gallery[4116174]\" rel=\"lightbox[4116174]\" title=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\" alt=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"280px\" height=\"280px\"  src=\"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-4.webp\" title=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\" alt=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\"><\/a><\/div><div class=\"niceseo_gallery_fancybox_item\" style=\"baackground-image:url(https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-3.webp)\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-3.webp\" data-fancybox=\"gallery[4116174]\" rel=\"lightbox[4116174]\" title=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\" alt=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"280px\" height=\"280px\"  src=\"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-3.webp\" title=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\" alt=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\"><\/a><\/div><div class=\"niceseo_gallery_fancybox_item\" style=\"baackground-image:url(https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-5.webp)\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-5.webp\" data-fancybox=\"gallery[4116174]\" rel=\"lightbox[4116174]\" title=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\" alt=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"280px\" height=\"280px\"  src=\"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/ggantija_temples_in_malta-5.webp\" title=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\" alt=\"Ggantija Temples, Malta\"><\/a><\/div><\/div><div class=\"niceseo_gallery_caption\">Ggantija Temples, Malta<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Wherever you go around Gozo&#8217;s tranquil shores, traveling by public transport or rental car makes accessing sights convenient and affordable.

It withstood heavy bombardment in WWII. Sights include the Church of St. Philip, gardens, and fine harbor views from the bastion walls.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cospicua <\/strong>(also known as <strong>Bormla<\/strong>) &#8212; originally a dockyard area, Cospicua makes up the largest section of the Three Cities. Historic Dock No. 1 dates from the time of the Knights. The city has winding streets lined with traditional Maltese houses and buildings.

I&#8217;d avoid wandering down dark alleys alone. Public housing projects are best avoided too. Overall though, Malta is quite safe.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Is it easy to get around Malta without a car?<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>Getting around without a car is very feasible. Buses go all over and are inexpensive. Ferries and water taxis transport between Valletta and the Three Cities. Rideshares, bikes, or walking work for shorter trips. Just allow extra time as buses can run infrequently.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Is Malta public transport free?<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>Unfortunately public transport is not free in Malta. You must buy bus cards or ferry tickets. But fares are reasonable &#8212; much less than taxis or renting a car. Many hotels offer free shuttle buses too.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Should you stay in Sliema or Valletta?<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>Sliema offers a livelier vibe and more dining options. But Valletta can&#8217;t be beat for charm, history and convenience. I&#8217;d recommend 3-4 nights in Sliema to enjoy the lifestyle then transfer to Valletta to immerse in culture.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>How many days to stay in malta?<\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>With limited time I&#8217;d spend at least 4 full days in Malta to see highlights of Valletta, Mdina and the Three Cities. A full week allows you to relax, explore smaller towns and squeeze in a day trip to Gozo. Add more days if you plan to spend time at beaches.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With its turquoise waters, colorful fishing villages, and rich history, Malta has become an increasingly popular Mediterranean destination.&hellip;","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[528],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1061533"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1061533"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1061533\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1061533"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1061533"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wheretostayin.city\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1061533"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
