Your adventure starts within the serene Mdina's age-old walls. As you wander down old paths, you'll see large, beautiful palaces and churches. Just through the Greek Gate, the ancient cobblestones of Rabat lead you toward the mysterious catacombs of St. Cataldus. Here, early Christians came together in quiet unity to perform their burial practices, their sacred rituals forever carved into the very fabric of history.

Beyond the paths of the historic landmarks, explore the natural landscape of the tall Dingli Cliffs. The cliffs form a dramatic scene against the blue sea, with the small chapel of Saint Mary Magdalene atop, shining like a jewel.

The gardens boast an impressive collection of exotic plants, some over a century old, adding to the enchanting ambiance of this peaceful retreat.
