De Drie Steden<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n

De Drie Steden bieden een boeiend inzicht in Malta en in de geschiedenis van de eilanden. Deze weinig bezochte steden kennen nog het authentieke eilandleven en laten de bezoeker kennismaken met de lotgevallen van Malta als zeevarende natie.<\/p>\n

De Drie Steden kunnen terecht aanspraak maken op de titel ‘bakermat van de Maltese geschiedenis’, aangezien Vittoriosa, Senglea en Cospicua onderdak en bescherming hebben geboden aan vrijwel elk volk dat zich op de eilanden vestigde.<\/p>\n

Hun natuurlijke havens werden al door de Phoeniciërs gebruikt en hebben de lokale bevolking altijd een broodwinning opgeleverd, maar maakten hen ook kwetsbaar wanneer Malta’s heersers oorlog voerden. Dit was de eerste thuisbasis voor de ridders van Sint Jan; de paleizen, kerken, forten en bastions van de Drie Steden zijn dan ook veel ouder dan die van Valletta.<\/p>\n

De lokale gemeenschappen vieren heiligendagen en festas zoals geen enkele andere stad of dorp op de eilanden. De meest spectaculaire evenementen zijn de paasprocessies wanneer beelden van de herrezen Christus in looppas door de met toeschouwers volgepakte straten worden gedragen. <\/p>\n
