ST JOHN'S CATHEDRAL A kaleidoscope of dazzling gold and gleaming marble, this building is a vital monument in Malta's history. Built in the 16th century by the Order of St John (over 400 of its knights are entombed here) and restored in the 1980s after WWII bomb damage, it is most notable as the home of Caravaggio's visceral painting The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist.

One is to watch a performance of Moreška, a folk sword dance; another is to visit St Mark's Cathedral, a stunning example of 15th-century Dalmatian architecture; while another is to spend lazy days swimming and sunbathing on the island's pretty beaches, with forays to seaside hamlets for seafood suppers.
