There are many slopes inside the citadel, but you can enjoy the era of the medieval knights.

The Island's gourmet foods are "Malta bread" and "Malta wine"
These have not yet been imported into Japan.
Visit the famous wine producing areas known to those in the know.
For white wine, I saw the vineyards on Gozo with my own eyes,
and was fascinated by the salt pans along the sea that I met on the way,
and looked into the finder for two days before dawn.

Among the many World Heritage Sites,
the one that I would like to pay particular attention to was the "Underground Temple".
Visits are limited to only 10 people per hour.
The stone chamber made by hollowing out the bedrock was full of ancient wisdom.
Best of all, I was impressed that there was a senior discount (30%) on admission everywhere.

No photography allowed inside the building

In the same year (2002) when I started "Island Tour of the Earth",
he rode a ferry from Shimonoseki to Busan,
and for the next seven years, from China to Russia and all over Europe, we met by chance on Malta.

 A republic consisting of Malta, Gozo and Comino.
This is the second time since I visited on a photography tour 7 years ago.
This time it was a trip for my wife and my sister and her husband.
May is a comfortable day with the early summer breeze.

Red wine is a gem born from a vast vineyard near Marsaxlokk on Malta.
Soothing my throat with Maltese craft beer and getting drunk tonight with a wine made from grapes grown in plenty of Mediterranean sunshine.
It was a journey to explore the 7,000-year-old historical highway for a long time on an Island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.

It takes place at Fort St.
Elmo in Valletta. The event that recreates the battle of the Knights is a masterpiece.
The gun corps and artillery exercises were particularly spectacular,
with a flag reminiscent of the Knights of St.
John of the old days waving a historic victory.

Yoshimasa Ikeuchi

He is an amazing young man who starts from only 30,000 yen and
is aiming to go around the world by earning coins with his favorite magic to eat from a trip to the field.
"Art helps oneself" He seems to continue this journey for the next five years.
I want to send ale to a fearless Japanese boy like a knight.

Keiichi Iwasaki

The cute old bonnet bus that runs in the city is also decided to be abolished in 2010 due to the large amount of exhaust gas.
This is also a product that remembers the changing times.
A young Japanese man was showing magic on the street corner.
The street performer is Keiichi Iwasaki (37, Gunma Prefecture).
