Valletta, the pint-sized capital of Malta, was constructed by the Knights of St John upon a peninsula that measures just 600m by 1km. It was intended by its founder to be ‘a city constructed by gentlemen for gentlemen’, maintaining its grace from the 16th century. Despite its small size, Valletta is brimming with attractions. Unesco designated Valletta as a World Heritage site, citing it as ‘one of the world’s most densely packed historic regions’.
