Valletta is a masterpiece of Baroque craftsmanship. Intricate carvings abound all over the city. It is an architecture lover’s paradise and it also attracts people like me who love to point their camera at the little details that make this city so unique.
Thousands walk past this beauty everyday and I think that most of us fail to see the work that has gone into these centuries-old buildings. I love to visit Valletta when the shops and offices are closed, and it is all but empty of people, so that I can walk slowly and savour the beauty of another era.
P.S. Excuse the rather lop-sided look of this blog at present. I am trying to change the layout and am having some difficulty with certain things. Hope to solve all the little issues soon.
Loree, these photos are mesmerizing! The wood balcony windows of Valletta are just lovely. What a beautiful place -- would love to see Malta with my own eyes!! (and camera)

ReplyDeleteCiao
Sepia is a perfect match to the rustic majesty of Valletta! Nice photos, especially like the old galleria. Agree with you on the pleasant enjoyment of walking through Valletta's streets when the shops are closed, helps draw the eyes upward. The street where Rubinos is located is also a treasure trove of dusty gems. Even the shop names are entertaining!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots! Sepia was the perfect choice.
