  • The origins of the parish of il-Gudja date back to 1436 when bishop Senatore de Mello declared Bir Miftuħ a parish church. The chapel of Bir Miftuħ (literally translated would eman an open well), on the outskirts of il-Gudja, still bears witness to the birth of this beautiful southern village in Malta. Down the ages, at least seven other villages grew out of il-Gudja earning the village the Latin title of ‘Pluribus Parens’ meaning mother of many Children.

    The Gudja parish church is the only church in Malta with three bell towers and is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. The oldest procession statue in Malta can be found in this church.

    Hi Steve, great video, really enjoyed you meeting the locals. I was one of the 10 pound immigrants to Australia 😁😁👍👍and from memory if you didn't stay for 10 years you had to pay the whole cost of the passage back which was hundreds of pounds. Also that Liqueur ( tal Bajtra) has been around from the times of the knights and is really nice ( well it was really nice when i had it ) nice walk Steve in a charming village. cheers 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍👍👍👍

    Gudja as I remembered it, nothing much has changed apart from some new buildings and a bypass. Those street decorations must have been from "Our Lady of Rosary" feast on 1/10/23.. Steve, the answer to your question @ 8:31 = part of what used to be an arch 🤔.
    Hello John, you'll live to 💯 with that delicious olive oil 😋.

    Good morning Steve, we have plans for a week in Malta over Christmas, I'm watching your Chanel for research 😊🎄 Il Gudja looks ideal as we avoid concrete jungles 😊 My concern is there are places to eat on Christmas day?
    We are hiring a car so this could be a day trip if you recommend somewhere more suitable for Christmas?
    My back objects to steps and hills, any help will be most appreciated 🤗🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🤞

      Yes loads of places to eat christmas day ! not to sure in the small villages Gudja band club might do something ? but hotels are nice on christmas day, like hilton/Excelsior / Seabank / depending on your budget, other then that sliema/St julians/bugibba loads of restaurants doing christmas day lunch, Remember to try and book, hope you enjoy

      @@EnglishmaninMalta many, many thanks replying Steve 👌😁 decided we are hiring a car and do day trips/tours around the island (getting lost playlist 🤣) 🚗
      so now we need to decide where to base ourselves 🤣 we prefer self catering for more choice, street food lunch (your playlist again 🤣) and eating out each evening 🍽️
      My shortlist is...
      Valletta 🤣 but which area? Around the royal theatre/republic street seems flatish?
      Or
