Our World Tuesday: Birgu/ Vittorioso
I spent most of my time in Gozo, but one day I took the ferry to Malta to visit Birgu, how the inhabitants still call the city the travel guides refer to as Vittorioso.
Birgu is one of three Maltese cities that are compared to Venice, Italy. Not only because of their beauty and the fact that they are located in the edge of turqouise blue water, but they have gondolas, too.
I clearly like Gozo more than Malta, but Birgu definitely is worth a visit!

Ich habe die meiste Zeit meiner Reise in Gozo verbracht, aber für einen Tag bin ich mit der Fähre nach Malta übergesetzt, um Birgu zu besuchen - wie die Einwohner die Stadt, die in den Reiseführern Vittorioso genannt wird, immernoch nennen. Birgu ist eine der drei maltesischen Städte, die mit Venedig verglichen werden, wegen ihrer Schönheit und weil sie direkt an türkisblauem Wasser liegen, aber auch, weil sie dort ebenfalls Gondeln haben.
Ich mag Gozo eindeutig lieber als Malta, aber Birgu ist auf alle Fälle einen Besuch wert!

That deep blue sky and red dome is a wonderful image.

My favorite is your last image...I feel as if I'm right there walking down that street. Beautiful!
These are spectacular pics of this beautiful ancient seaport.
It's much more beautiful than the pictures can show ... and as well Birgu as larger parts of Gozo have a certain Fifties-look and feeling. A really lovely place, worth not only one visit but several.
Beautiful photos from Malta! A place I have to visit someday..
