It has lent its name to the Għar Dalam phase in Maltese prehistory.

Fort Benghisa
Fort Benghisa is a fortification on the island of Malta. It stands on high ground on the seaward face of Benghisa point, the southern arm of Marsaxlokk Bay. It is a Polygonal fort and was built by the British. The fort was the last polygonal fort built in Malta, built in 1909. The gatehouse, and the shoreward ditch are in fair repair.
Xarolla Windmill
The Xarolla Windmill at Żurrieq, Malta is one of the windmills constructed by the Knights of Malta in the villages and towns of Malta. In 1674 Grand Master Nicolas Cotoner built five windmills around Malta. One of these was the windmill built in Nigret, Zurrieq, known as Tal-Qaret. In 1724, Grand Master Antonio Manoel de Vilhena built another windmill next to it, known as Ta' Marmara, which was the surname of the first person to work in the same windmill, Luret Marmara.
Ħal Far
Ħal Far, is one of the main industrial estates in Malta. It is at the southern extreme of Malta, between the localities of Birżebbuġa, Safi and Żurrieq. In the past, Ħal Far housed the RAF Hal Far airfield, which was known as HMS Falcon when in the service of the Royal Navy. The runway can still be seen and driven on, leading the Maltese to use for drag car racing. Parts of the airfield including the hangar have been converted into a refugee camp for illegal immigrants.
Bubaqra
Bubaqra is a small, rural area in Zurrieq, in the south-east of Malta. It is situated between the zones of Nigret and Hal-Far. Has a population of 2,000 people. Even though it is one of the oldest areas in this village, many new buildings are being constructed and this area is searched most by newly-weds who come to live in this quiet, airy area. At the centre of this zone, a small church is situated, dedicated to our Holy Mary.
RAF Hal Far
The RAF Hal Far airfield was the first permanent airfield to be built on Malta. It was opened on 1 April 1929 as HMS Falcon, a Royal Navy base, and was used by Royal Navy air crews. It was transferred to the Maltese Government and redeveloped as from January 1979. It is now closed and one of its runways is used by drag racing enthusiasts. The second runway is now a road leading to an industrial estate which was developed recently.
Playmobil Park
Playmobil Park is the world's second largest Playmobil factory, located in Ħal Far in the extreme south of Malta. Although smaller than the Playmobil FunPark headquarters in Zirndorf, some 2 million Playmobils a week are made at the factory which also offers a 45-minute tour of the factory and facilities for children.
