Why Victoria matters
Victoria, also called Rabat, is the heart of Gozo. A hilltop citadel rises above the town, and the market square, It-Tokk, fills with stalls. From here you can reach prehistoric temples, rural churches and cliffs. Gozo is greener and quieter than Malta, and Victoria is where that slower pace starts.
Talking points
- The citadel overlooks the whole island.
- Gozo feels greener and calmer than Malta.
- The market square is the social centre.
