These inset images, bursting with wonderfully garish colours, offer a unique window into the rich history and culture of this Mediterranean island nation. 3. The first scene transports us to the picturesque town of Mosta, where the stunning Musta Church stands proudly against the backdrop of a clear blue sky.

Lastly, a woman in traditional Maltese costume is shown engaged in the art of lacemaking. With her deft hands and concentrated expression, she skillfully weaves intricate patterns on her bobbins, creating beautiful lace that has been a cherished Maltese craft for generations. 7.
