Rabat is a town situated in the Northern areas of Malta. The name ‘Ir-Rabat’ derives from the Arabic word for ‘suburb’, as it was once the suburb of Mdina, the old capital city. With narrow streets and wooden ‘gallerijas’ (Maltese balconies), this charming town oozes history. Some of the highlights include Roman mosaics, catacombs and picturesque churches.
