Mdina Main Gate - Baroque gateway serves as the main and most popular entrance into the medieval old town and its labyrinth of narrow alleys. Lavishly decorated with inscriptions and stone carvings, the existing gate was built in 1724, but traces of the earlier entrance can be seen on the city wall to the right. Notice the city's coats of arms and the three patron saints of Malta. Outside the main gate, you can catch a tour in a horse-drawn carriage.

    Very impressive gate, but it is crowded all the times. Will be impossible to get a picture there!!!!  more »
  • By GozoBern
    The main gate of the old Mdina city is stunning. You get a clear view when coming to the city. A small bridge goes over a garden and let you enter the medieval city.  more »
