I was completely blown away by Mdina, the Silent City.
The architecture.
The stillness.
The feeling of stepping back in time.
Over 4,000 years old, once Malta’s capital, shaped by Romans, Arabs and medieval nobility.
No traffic.
No rush.
Just limestone walls softening every sound, almost like the silence beneath the ocean it was once part of. Maybe that’s why it felt so grounding.
It felt like the kind of quiet that lets you hear yourself again.
Stone built to last. Geometry holding everything in place.. again asking myself what legacy we will leave behind us? Walking through the streets, I couldn’t help but feel we’ve regressed in how we build, we no longer create with the same permanence. But standing in the old dungeons beneath the city, I was reminded how far we’ve come in how we treat one another. Perhaps we’ve lost something in stone… but gained something in humanity.
