Malta的网上的中文资料不多见。-__-" 所以当初就买了LP的书。相片会放的比较多，因为没什么detail可以介绍。哈哈～～虽然说四天三夜，其实也只是星期六和日，比较有充足的时间去走走，因为星期五晚上抵达，星期一一早就要离开了。 :p
今天～星期日起来吃了早餐后，跟GUEST HOUSE老板娘～Mrs.Agnes合照。她是一个算是和蔼的老太太吧，她会跟你说一些有趣的故事， 比如说客人在那些booking hostel的网站里的comments,投诉等等的事情。她说着一口非常典型英国口音的英语。哈哈～

Malta的古董巴士
今天一大早就乘巴士前往Malta著名的鱼市场 ＜Marsaxlokk-Fish-Market＞。那里除了鱼市场外，还有卖一些手工艺品、纪念品、土产、杂货、蔬菜水果之类的。可以看一看，了解一点点他们的食物，鱼产之类的。Marsaxlokk就在码头旁，可以看到一艘艘的Malta特有的小船。它们的颜色非常鲜艳亮丽。
[ If you like your fish fresh, then the Marsaxlokk Fish Market is going to really tickle your fancy. Malta’s foremost fishing village, Marsaxlokk has seen fishermen sailing in and out of its bay since time immemorial. The daily catch is taken to be sold at the fish market in Valletta although on Sundays the catch is retailed by the fishermen themselves at the Marsaxlokk Fish Market.
In this picturesque locality amidst the charming quayside houses and fresh sea air you can wander through stalls laden with all types of fish that were coursing through the depths of the Mediterranean only a few hours previously. Depending on the season, such fish include bass, grouper, dentex, stone fish, white bream, red mullet, tuna, swordfish, and the famous lampuki or dolphin fish in late autumn. Octopus and squid are also frequently available to make mouth-watering soups or pasta sauces. ] From: 101Malta

逛了Marsaxlokk，就回到ASTI Guest House休息一会儿。这间guest house 是LP书上推荐的，还满不错的。

我们住的地方就在Valletta，Malta的首都。这里有博物馆、艺术馆、皇宫等等古建筑物。我们买了套票就去参观博物馆和皇宫。
[ As cities go, Valletta is one of Europe’s most famous. Built over 500 years ago it is often described as a city ‘built by gentlemen, for gentlemen’ and has recently been made a World Heritage Site signifying its cultural importance. When you walk into the city expect an explosion of activity, color, noise and confusion.
Apart from being Malta’s capital, Valletta is also the commercial and political center and is filled with hundreds of shops as well as a vast daily market. For the more discerning visitor there is plenty of history and culture to get your teeth stuck into.
Valletta is teeming with museums, galleries, palaces and other places of extreme interest – most of which are very much worth visiting. But, more importantly than all of that, it is the people who make Valletta a truly beautiful place to visit.] From: 101Malta
接着去参观地球上最古老的石头建筑物,Hypogeum。它有规定每一个时段只能够给一定的人数去参观。所以，去之前要先买票哦，旅游旺季的时候，最好早几个星期就要买了，以防到时候买不到票。
[ Hypogeum or Hypogaeum (plural hypogea) literally means "underground", from Greek hypo (under) and gaia (earth).It usually refers to an underground, pre-Christian temple or a tomb. When Christian underground shrines, crypts and tombs that would be hypogea if the rites and burials were pagan, are called catacombs, a mistaken discontinuity in sepulture practices is implied that is not borne out by the archeology and history. "Like other ambitious Romans, the bishop-saints of the third and fourth centuries were usually buried in hypogea in the cemeteries outside the walls of their cities; often it was only miracles at their tombs that caused their successors to adopt more up-to-date designs. In Dijon the saint and bishop Benignus (d. c. 274) was buried in a large sarcophagus in a chamber tomb in the Roman cemetery. By the sixth century the tomb had long since fallen into disrepair and was regarded as pagan, even by Bishop Gregory of Langres", Werner Jacobsen has observed.] Wikipedia :Hypoguem

[ Time travel, as we are all too well aware, remains the stuff of science fiction. One day, maybe, but not for now. Sadly that means we will never be able to flick a switch and appear in the middle of a medieval joust armed with a six pack and digital camera. However, in Malta we do have one of the closest things you will ever find to time travel – the ancient city of Mdina.
From the second you step through its imposing gates it will truly feel like you have turned back the clock several hundred years. The narrow streets, fascinating architecture and overall ambience of this stunning place make it one of Malta’s most visited sites. ] 101Malta
