Exploring Valletta During Christmas

THINGS TO SEE AND DO IN VALLETTA

FAIRYLAND

Customarily, the Triton Fountain in Valletta will be transformed into

Santa's City for Christmas from December 8 to January 6, 2023.

Santa's City will be recreated at the entrance to Malta's capital city, ready to provide children and adults the ultimate Christmas experience. The Ice Rink and Rudolph's Wheel, which once again will provide the best aerial views of Valletta and the surrounding cities, are two attractions that are predicted to return. Santa Claus will undoubtedly reside in Fairyland and be on hand to visit children from all around the world.

ST. JOHN’S CO-CATHEDRAL

If you are interested in the arts and culture, The Cathedral is a must visit! The fact that Malta is overwhelmed with churches does not undermine or hinder the charm of John's Co-Cathedral. The Co-Cathedral is home to a plethora of Baroque art and artefacts, in addition to its magnificent Baroque frescos, intricate marble floors, three-dimensional sculptures, carved stone walls, and beautiful vaulted ceilings adorned by the great Italian Baroque artist Mattia Preti. The Co-Cathedral is also the location of one of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio's most famous pieces, ‘The Beheading of St John the Baptist’ (1608)..

THE SALUTING

BATTERY

The Saluting Battery, one of Malta's top tourist attractions, seeks to bring history to life. It offers scenic views of the Grand Harbour and the fortified cities that surround it. The battery is elevated along Valletta's eastern old walls, currently standing as the oldest saluting battery still in service. Its weapons guarded the harbour from naval assault for more than 500 years. Together with the midday signal, these signals played a critical role in dictating the pace of life in the city and its arresting environs.

VALLETTA WATERFRONT

The Valletta Waterfront is a popular destination for tourists searching to take a break from the city’s history and unwind with some shopping and entertainment. Previously of enormous economic and cultural significance, the Valletta Waterfront has recently been modernised and renovated to satisfy the ever-changing demands of this dynamic city. The current design, which combines a centre for transit, entertainment, and commerce, is situated on the western side of the Grand Harbour and overlooks the quaint walled village of Senglea.
