Romans in Malta

I spent the day with a friend in Rabat. This is the place where both Blessed John Paul II and Benedict XVI visited the Grotto of St. Paul. Fantastic Roman catacombs and a Roman villa allow one to see the influence of a long Roman occupation of Malta.

Here are a few photos.

There is also an art gallery and museum there which I shall need to visit again. I shall write about that tomorrow.

Too hot to write....
