Feeling the history and the silence around you while running it's a blessing that some locations have and this particular power is something not to be missed for a runner looking to explore a new place. Mdina is one of those places where you can actually experience it. It might be the soft colours, the narrow streets, the shiny cobblestone pavement and the brownish city walls that creates this magic atmosphere.

As a runner I am always looking for a good reason to run  (apart from training) because I love to explore different places, so if you are planning your next vacation in  Malta you should not miss this experience. The running route I most enjoy if I want to dive deep into the Maltese history, more precisely back to the Medieval times and the Knights of Malta, is the Three Cities route.
