Collacchio
Beste tijd om te bezoeken
Early evening or late afternoon, when the sunlight casts long shadows over the narrow alleyways and the temperature is milder. Avoid midday in summer as the streets are narrow and shade is minimal.
Budgettips
Collacchio itself is free to explore on foot. Entry to the Inquisitor's Palace and Malta at War Museum costs around 10 euros each. Buy a combined ticket for several attractions in Vittoriosa to save money.

Over
Korte feiten: Collacchio vormt de middeleeuwse kern van Vittoriosa. Hier leefden de Maltese ridders van de Orde van Sint-Jan voordat ze naar Valletta verhuisden, en het gebied is sinds de 9e eeuw onafgebroken bewoond geweest.
Hoogtepunten: In de smalle straatjes van Collacchio vind je de originele Maltese houten balkons, geschilderd in dieprood en groen, die over de steegjes uitsteken. 's Avonds, wanneer de kasseien glanzen in het schijnsel van de lantaarns, voelt het alsof je een levende middeleeuwse stad binnenloopt waar de tijd sinds de 16e eeuw heeft stilgestaan.
Insidertips
- Bring good shoes. The cobblestones are uneven and steep in several places.
- Come early in the morning when the crowds are gone and the light provides perfect photo opportunities.
- Talk to the locals in the backyards. Several open their doors if you knock and introduce yourself.
- Eat at one of the small family-run cafes in the alleyways, not the tourist restaurants by the harbor.
