説明

Discover the charms of two traditional villages, where you will learn how limestone is quarried, watch Bocci being played and observe artisans practicing their crafts. While wandering about the Limestone Heritage Park and Gardens in Siggiewi, you may see artisans sculpting stones and gain an understanding of how limestone was formed on Malta millions of years ago. You can expect to see peacocks roaming about and smell the scent of bay, laurel and citrus trees wafting through the air. The ambiance is wonderfully relaxing and the experience enlightening, as you may watch a demonstration of limoncello being made from lemons grown on the grounds. Further inland in the village of Lija, you will observe the locals playing bocci, a traditional sport that is closely related to the French game of petanque and Italian bocce. In another neighborhood nearby, you will watch artisans such as weavers and shoe makers, an experience that will provide great insight into the local culture.
