Megalitic Temples

Friday 29 June

This day was a holiday in Malta, San Pedro is a holiday and is very, very important to them ...

All the streets of Sliema, Valletta etc ... were decked with ribbons, balloons, garlands and statues of saints everywhere seems really odd that you feel at Easter in Seville.

We decided to take the bus tour on one of the routes to the south for 15 euros per person, you just have to go up and down at various tourist sites, a convenient way to go sightseeing. We started crossing Valletta where we saw the Phoenicia Hotel, the city gate and finally the waterfront where you can see all the cruises, but our first goal was to see the two Tarxien megalithic temples that are here, first the memorial ( Hypogeum) and then the megalithic temple of Tarxien, impressive stone reliefs. Is transport you to prehistory, but he felt a sense of loneliness in this town.

 

TARXIEN TEMPLE	HAGAR QUIN TEMPLE
HYPOGEUM TEMPLE	We continue our path and we reached another typical temples is one of the most important, the temple of Hagar Qim. We could only see him out and impresses truth than to see Stone Henge.
