  • Name of Shop: Bay Street Shopping

    A medium sized shopping area set on 3 floors of a purpose built block - there is a hotel within the complex too. All of it under 2 years old.

    There are several designer shops, an amusement hall, a few restaurants and bars, and the inevitable...McDonalds! Some more shops are located outside the building, very close by.

    Ta' Qali Craft Village: Maltese Glass

  • Name of Shop: Ta' Qali Craft Village

    Amongst other souvenirs, Malta has several glass producers. Most well known are Mdina Glass and Imtarfa Glass.

    Both can be found at the craft village of Ta Qali. All the workshops are housed in disused aircraft hangars and former military premises. Craftsmen and women can be seen busy at work throughout the many 'huts'. The glassblowers are always fascinating to watch, and the air-conditioned factories are now much cooler than I recall them being years ago!

    What To Buy: As well as a huge range of traditional and contemporary glassware, many types of craftware can be seen being made and sold here, including lace, pottery, silver filligree jewellery, ironwork, woodwork and leatherwork. Well worth a visit!

    What To Pay: All at reasonable prices, but look out for bargain 'seconds' in the glassware - some products are greatly reduced in price for very minor blemishes.

     Very useful Tips and great Photos - Malta has been on my list for a long time - ever since a planned visit 26 years ago fell through. Must do something about it...
