Wandering around Valletta

Arriving in the morning meant that we could explore the city in the afternoon, and what a beautiful place it is.

It's a city of impressive high buildings...
...often on narrow and steep streets.


We liked the Madonna & Child alongside the Guinness sign!


Built on a peninsula ('presqu'île' in French = amost an island)...
...this system of fortifications would keep out most enemies!
I'm afraid I can't remember who this imposing character was, looking very Shakespearian though
The Auberge de Castille where the Prime Minister has his offices
