Hypogeum of Ħal-Saflieni
The Hypogeum of Paola, Malta, literally meaning "underground" in Greek, is a subterranean structure dating to the Saflieni phase (3000-2500 BC) in Maltese prehistory. Thought to be originally a sanctuary, it became a necropolis in prehistoric times, as proven by the remains of more than 7,000 individuals that have been discovered during the course of the excavation. It is the only prehistoric underground temple in the world.
RAF Luqa
Royal Air Force Luqa was a flying station and location of RAF Mediterranean Command headquarters of the Royal Air Force on the island of Malta during World War II. Particularly during the Siege of Malta from 1941 to 1943, RAF Luqa was a very important base for British Commonwealth forces fighting against Italy and Germany for naval control of the Mediterranean and for ground control of North Africa.
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.
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.
Wardija Tower
The Wardija Tower is one of thirteen towers that Grand Master Martin de Redin of the Knights of Malta had built along the coasts of Malta. The tower is between Zurrieq and Hal Far; the nearest tower to it is the Hamrija Tower to the south-east. The Wardija Tower was constructed and finished by June 1659 and was the last tower built. It is smaller than the other de Redin towers although it was armed with 2 cannon and 2 mortars. The tower's actual name was Torre della Guardia di Giorno.
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.
