Malta had civilization when the rest of Europe was still figuring out sticks.
Ggantija. Hagar Qim. Mnajdra. Hard to pronounce, harder to believe. These temples are 5,500 years old. That's older than the Pyramids of Giza. Older than Stonehenge.
Who built them? A peaceful society of farmers? Giants (as legends say)? We call them "Temple People". They moved 50-ton stones without wheels. And then, around 2500 BC, they just vanished.
If you only see one site, make it Hagar Qim & Mnajdra. They sit on a cliff overlooking the sea. The setting is dramatic, the stones are massive, and the museum is excellent.
Hypogeum: The underground temple. It's UNESCO protected and allows only 80 people a day. Tickets sell out 3 months in advance. If you want to see it, book NOW.
