Thank you for sharing this captivating 4K walking tour of Valletta, Malta! It's truly a magnificent city with a rich history and undeniable charm. The stunning architecture and picturesque streets showcased in the video are a testament to its beauty. It's fascinating to learn that Valletta, despite its small size, holds the title of Europe's smallest capital city. The fact that it has been featured in popular films and shows like Game of Thrones only adds to its allure. The sunny weather further enhances the vibrant atmosphere, making it an even more enticing destination to explore. This video has truly captured the essence of Valletta, and I thoroughly enjoyed the virtual tour.

[@LivingWalks]

Thanks for stopping by RelaxedRoamer - glad you liked it. Keep up the great videos of Scotland!

[@ConESC26]

I was in Valletta last weekend and I loved most of it, especially Republic Street with those stunning banners which I don't think were there when this was filmed.

Y la cantidad de visitantes es tambien tan abundante? gracias

[@LivingWalks]

Hola Norberto, creo que mayo será muy agradablemente cálido y seco y aunque habrá bastante movimiento, no creo que llegue a su apogeo. Estoy seguro de que lo pasarás genial.

[@mimymercury5626]

What is the name of that ' favorite street '?. Going to Malta in October 2023

[@LivingWalks]

It's St. Lucia's Street. It's just off St Paul street. Have a good time!

[@MENSA.lady2]

Sunniest European Capital ? Nicosia might disagree. Who cares both are great spots for some winter sunshine.

[@LivingWalks]

Quite so!

[@MRobloxStory]

Your saying Valletta wrong the word is right but how you pronounce it

[@LivingWalks]

Ah well that's just my muddling through British accent. All the best to you.

[@radgybenno]

Valletta is nice but there's too much boozing in the streets ,

[@LivingWalks]

Ah there can be that's true. A lovely city nonetheless. All the best to you.

[@sharlowe75]

One of my Maltese aunties got pregnant by a sailor 😊
