TARXIEN TEMPLES, Astonishing Archaeological Complex, MALTA

Tarxien temples are one of the largest Megalithic temples in Malta with four distinct temples adjoining each other. If you love art and is curious what it was like, this is the place to come. It is the richest and most elaborate in terms of sculptured decoration and iconography a showcase of prehistoric art. Ironically, they were found by farmers in 1913 as at the time they were buried in debris. The plough used to get stuck in large stone and reported them to the museum of archaeology.

[@captainseahawk4803]

That was great Steve. Living in Australia we don’t get to see any ancient sites like the Tarxien Temples. I look forward to exploring Maltas Historic sites when I finally come back . Amazing places that still haven’t given up all their secrets.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Been meaning to go for years

[@carbugnov1952]

very nice video . those pair of salamoniac columns look very interesting, wish somebody post an old photo of them in their original place. the music at the end was very suitable , would like to know its name and composer. cheers.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Its a very interesting place, i will have to check the music for you

My daughter in laws family live on the road leading to the temples. I didn't know there was a cemetery. My son is buried in his wife's family plot at Addolorata. The temples is a nice place to visit by the looks....never been. I've shared on my fb xxx

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Thank you Gaynor

[@calatoruldac]

I like places with a rich history. Interesting your movie! Congratulations!

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@iamatraveller3927]

Very interesting place to visit. It is one my favorite with history all around you.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Yes we are lucky in malta to have so much history

[@vickygibson1519]

Interesting video, Steve, last time I was there, some walkways were in place but no canopies, so it's good that the temples are being protected now from the elements. The site is fantastic, so thank you for reminding me how good it is to see again. I dont know how I missed seeing the big cemetery next door, that also looked peaceful and seems an apt place to be next to the temples. Thank you again, Steve.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

I think they are trying to update many things

[@noelpace8339]

Really interesting video today Steve. Enjoyed it greatly. Keep them coming.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Yes fascinating place

[@rachel7565]

Not somewhere we have visited before. Thanks for showing us around Steve 👍🏼

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

[@marychristensentttrup3155]

Hi Steve👍 ,thanks ,😃it really was an interestring video from Maltas history,(also the cemetery lol)💃 but I have not been there🌈,and the Maltese history is amazing/😎from Copenhagen DK 🇩🇰

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Cool, thanks

[@antjeanne]

Great video! When I was there in 1996 it didn’t have the cover or walkway. We walked there from the family house in Paola.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Sure the cover will make a difference to preserving the stones

[@harrypetrie4374]

Very interesting Steve, Thanks.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Welcome Harry

[@johnembery7801]

Love to see these places, very fascinating, especially pleased to see this one as I think this is the only one we have not been to..Always promised ourselves to visit this but have never made it.. Great work Steve thanks 🙂👍

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

You should go, very interesting

[@geologist3216]

Fascinating Steve , the last time I was over there I meant to pay it a visit but somehow gave it a miss , there was an interesting programme on the telly a few months ago about a link between the temple builders and the earliest records of farming in Britain , they reckoned that a climate catastrophe in the northern hemisphere forced the Maltese and Gozitan farmers to migrate .

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

So musch history ..I get mixed up !!

[@frida8961]

How very interesting Steve! Really enjoyed it.Thankyou.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Nice feel to stand in the middle of the temples

[@PierreFarrugia]

Very interesting steve

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Thanks nice history over there

[@margoguythomson8736]

Hi Steve, afternoon love these historical videos it so interesting ☺️ were is it I need to go the next time😁👍💜x

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

The place is called Tarxien near poala just behind the three cities

[@BigJohn5662]

It's very different to how it was years ago. There didn't used to be the walkways and canopy, and you could get right down in to the temples. I get it's to preserve them for future generations, but sadly you loose something of the experiance. There's a very special feeling you get actually walking in the ancients footsteps. There was only one other family there when we visited all of those years ago. It's such a shame that a lot of folk don't take much interest in these things.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Still its very nice and neat now and organized

[@darrenbarbera2377]

I went to the graves the other name my grandfather family our there when you walk in there on your right Barbara

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Very interesting place
