Visit Malta's Own Blue Grotto Blue Grotto namely Blue Cave, the most famous can be found on the Island of Capri but we can find similar ones on nearly every coast or island. All you need is a rocky cave or arch way and the sunshine reflecting from the sea bottom covering the water to different shades of green or blue depending on how deep the water is. This national site provides a living for some clever boat man all over the world from Thailand to Corfu. The mountainous Blue Cave is especially nice and the small harbor from where the boats are departing is singularly pleasant. Besides the cave, we can also admire two other formations similar to fjords. These are the Wied Babu and the Wied iz-Zurrieq. Wied means the same in Maltese language as wadi in Arabic language namely river valley or channel. The Blue Grotto is a 15 meter long stalactite cave with some coral, although these are not so colorful as the tropical ones. The most amazing spectacle is in the morning hours but each part of the day has its specialty. The cliff cropping abruptly to the water is broken by countless caves and hollows. In the distance of six kilometers, we can see the inhabited Island of Filfla. The island was used by NATO for a long time and even nowadays cannot be visited. On summer weekends, dozens of local children enjoy the water and sunshine here. The traditionally painted boats, the shining sun, the general noise of the beaches and the salty smell of the sea together make our time spent here into a special experience. Close to the Blue Cave there's a temple group which consists of three individual cultic places that later were surrounded by a common wall. This is an archaic world with a mysterious symbol. It was built 3000 to 4000 years Before Christ and the big question is the same here as with the Egyptian Pyramids. How could people move those almost 20 ton rocks? According to the Science findings those huge stone tables were altars and served for presenting victims just like Stone Henge, Higer Quinn also provides evidence that the beginning of human civilization is older than we imagine. The nearby Manatr is a similar megalithic Church which has been closed to visitors owing to repeated vandalism. Malta was the first European territory to adapt Christianity and mainly due to the journeys 300 year reign the inhabitants are still very religious. In addition, the love of holidays is very common here. On Saint Peter's and Saint Paul's days the local church blesses the animals. Everyone comes with his own animal like lambs, goats or horses or even house pets like cats or dogs. A red mark is painted on the blessed animals. These festivals are not only holidays or spectacles but also big events in the Maltese community life and there are about basket garden, the pavilions, music fans and several programs give a real picnic feeling. The highest point of the island is the 253 meter high Ta' Dmejrek. Here was the small Magdalena Chapel from which we can overlook to an amazing view. Wonder is the giddy Dingli precipice opposite in the sea is the Island of Filfla.
