You are bound to cross Republic Street if you are planning on travelling to Valetta anyway but it makes sense to get down from your vehicle and take a long and leisurely walk down this prestigious area in Malta. The street itself is historic and quite beautifully constructed but the city’s art, architecture and culture have become centered on the boulevard which makes it very interesting to explore.

You will, of course, find some charming contemporary hotels and cafes in the place. Moreover, it is a huge shopping hub that is ideal for all the shopaholics. But the interesting thing to see is the amazing architecture Baroque and medieval that surrounds you. It is sure to take you on a trip back in time. If you love art and architecture, exploring Republic Street in the city is an absolute must do.
