Gozo forms part of the Maltese archipelago situated 80km south of Sicily. It has its own character forged out of thousands of years of history which has seen different peoples and cultures leaving their identity on the Gozitan lifestyle. Every rock has a story to tell. From the pre-historic Ggantija Temples dating back to 4000BC to the medieval Citadel which is perched high up in the centre of the island.
