What travelers are saying

You need to visit Mdina at least once in your life time, the silent city, offers great things to do and watch, the gate is really nice especially in the evening when it is lit!

As a huge Game of Thrones fan this is the first place that I have recognized and searched since we entered in the other side of the city I have to search the main entrance which is featured in GOT series! the verd...

Amazingly preserved and tastefuly renovated in some parts, this gateway is the first thing you see while approaching the Old city, and it's quite a spectacle.

Beautiful place

This is a must see, beautiful place. Cannot believe the people, The Knights, from early days, build this amaizing city. It is named Mdina, the Silent City. We did a scenic walking tour and went to Baccus Restaurant afterwards. Recommended !

Going back in time

This is a lovely place. Horse and trap rides through the narrow streets which open in large squares with many historical and interesting buildings. Very few references to GOT that we saw even though we did recognise some of the town from episodes we had...More

Beautiful Baroque Gate

This is a really beautiful old entrance to the city. If you want to get a good photo of it arrive early or it will be crowded. It is still used by the occasional cars going into the old town too so watch out. This...More

The Stunning Silent City

As a GOT fan I wanted to visit Mdina and it was like taking a step back in time. Tiny streets, some of which you could touch both sides with outstretched arms. Beautiful architecture that echoed ancient times and hearing the distant clip clip of...More

Pretty gateway

Pretty gateway into Mdina. It can be hard to get a photo if there are a lot of people about. Watch out for horses!

Lovely

Really stunning entrance to the beautiful old city. We arrived early before the crowds when it was peaceful and I could get a good pic. Mdina is such a pretty place to visit, I’d thoroughly recommend it.

Portal to the past

In the days of "The Silent City" you could stroll into Mdina at leisure. Now the volume of traffic in and out has destroyed that pleasure. The gate is still a wonderful site A doorway to an architectural feast of delights, especially at night when...More

A fitting entrance to the old city

Original gate has been walled up at some point and the larger Greek gate took its place. Nice bas-relief and small statuettes on both sides. Worth a closer look especially when exiting the city.
