Where is Malta?
This question is the most frequently asked.
Is Malta part of Italy? Is also asked. Regrettable!
Malta is a country in Europe, even if you can't see it on the map.
Malta is almost the same size as Iriomote Island in Japan and is a small country that ranks within the 15th place in the world.
Officially called the Republic of Malta.
It is an island country like Japan.
In Japan, since Malta is located in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, it is often called the "Mediterranean navel" or "Mediterranean gem".
Malta is located in the south of Sicily (Sicily is famous for the movie "The Gotfather") and you can take a ferry from Malta to Sicily in less than 2 hours.
By the way, you can easily go to Malta from all over Europe as if you were on a day trip.
Why don't you stop by while you're in Europe?
