Mdina was my favourite town on Malta, and I enjoyed the quirky, narrow streets, and although it is busy with tourists, I found it to have much more character in the evening when the streets are quiet and the lamps provide spots of light on the golden buildings. The walled city is small, and it doesn't take long to explore it. Nearby is the town of Rabat, which I visited and wrote about here: Exploring Above and Under Ground in Rabat, Malta. It only takes a few minutes to walk from Rabat to Mdina, and Mdina is separated by a city gate.
During my trip to Malta, I visited Mdina in the evening as well as during the day. During the evening, Mdina held a fireworks show outside of the city walls, and that was spectacular. The town is completely different in the evenings, with fewer people and quiet streets lit by faint glows of lamps.
I hope you enjoy the photographs below of my trip to Mdina. I found it to be a picturesque place with prime opportunity for photographs at dusk, when the lamps begin to glow and before it gets to be too dark.
