This section is dedicated to take away all your "I wish someone had told me that before I went!" experiences.

Pieta, Malta, is a humble and small coastal town that is on record as the birth place of the majority of Maltese citizens, due to St. Luke’s Hospital here, where many women give birth. This city lies on the outskirts of the capital city of Valleta, and borders the waterfront that leads from Floriana towards Sliema. The few hostels in Pieta, Malta have the typical Maltese-architecture rooms, and are located in quiet neighborhoods to make your stay here comfortable and interesting.
The most prominent landmark of historic interest is the old boathouse found floating on the waterfront that is today used as a restaurant. While at the waterfront, enjoy the flurry of boats and ferries, as the city serves as a departure point for ferries to Gozo, and a patrol-boat depot of the Armed Forces of Malta.
Visit the Our Lady of Sorrows parish church, another prominent place of interest, and take some time out to renew your spirituality. Drop by at the famous Villa Guardamangia, a large, two-tiered building with an extravagant porch, and some rare architectural features. This villa served as a residence for then-Princess Elizabeth of Great Britain, for a few years in the mid-twentieth century. Stop off too at the Ta' Braxia Cemetery Complex, a historic place that served as the burial place for many World War I veterans from the British army and navy.
