"MDINA" a Mdina Travel Page by micajo

Mdina, Malta’s medieval capital and ex-capital city of Malta can goes back to its origins more than 4000 years ago. Mdina is a fascinating to tour for their timeless atmosphere and their cultural and religious treasures. Mdina has had different names and titles during the years. It was called Melita to the Romans; Medina to the Arabs; and Citta’ Vecchia, the old city, when Valletta became the means of support of the Islands. None describe it better than its medieval name, Citta’ Notabile, the noble city.
Today Mdina has a quiet, restrained atmosphere in keeping with its noble past. Lamp lit by night, Mdina transforms itself into the ‘Silent City’. For a relaxed evening, seek out the restaurants tucked away in its bastions and palace courtyards
