Tourist Guide Valletta
Valletta is located on the north-eastern coast of Malta, the main island of the Republic of Malta. This town of approximately 6,300 inhabitants is the capital of Malta and is known as the ‘City of Knights’. It has two natural harbours that are able to accommodate trading ships and cruise liners.
Valletta, like the rest of the island, does not have severe winters, with the average temperature at 15°C; precipitation is at the maximum at this time. During summers, the temperature hovers around 30°C with almost no rain.
Valletta is one of the first planned cities of Europe; the streets, buildings, the drainage system and all other amenities were designed and then laid out. The old walled medieval city is perched on a slight ascension, and the newer sections have spread over the plains.
