It was here, in AD60, that the Apostle St Paul was rumoured to have lived whilst shipwrecked. A silent city by day, Mdina’s narrow, cobbled alleyways housing bastions and palaces are transformed into a glittering, exotic city by night where you can enjoy a romantic dinner by candlelight and hundreds of lanterns twinkling around you. This old medieval capital city of Malta sits high above the Maltese Islands and offers panoramic views of the city.
Mdina, also known as the silent city of Ghosts, you’ll feel as if you have been transported into a bygone era by a time capsule…
It’s called ‘The Silent City’ because automobiles are banned during the day out of respect for the ghosts within the city! Mdina really comes alive at night when the glittering lights transform the city into something of a fairytale.
