Valletta

Founded in 1566, Valletta is Malta's capital city and is one of Europe's smallest (and southern-most) capital cities, with many buildings having a strong Baroque character. Built on a peninsula between two large natural harbours (Grand Harbour on the eastern side and Marsamxett Harbour to the West), the city sits perched on higher ground. Its streets were aligned in a grid-like layout, being wide and straight, which is said to have been chosen to allow the sea breeze to provide respite from Malta's hot summer weather. Despite its small size, Valletta is packed with sites of historical significance, with buildings dating back to the 16th century. So much so that it's been an officially listed UNESCO World Heritage site since 1980.
