Inside Malta's MOST Dangerous Neighborhood 🇲🇹
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 июл 2022
- 📍 Albert Town, Marsa - Malta | Not for the faint hearted and definitely not a touristic hot spot... this is Albert Town Neighborhood which is considered Malta's Most Dangerous Neighborhood.
This outskirt of the harbour-side village of Marsa is home for many African immigrants, dodgy abandoned buildings ...but also a warehouse mecca for traders and Carnival companies.

It is called Albert town , named for Prince Albert, the husband of queen Victoria. That old arch on the water canal was from the time of queen Victoria, that's why on it inscribed in two circles you see the letters V and R for Victoria Regina. V . R . you can see them in old letter pillar boxes.
Thanks for the information!
We lived in Malta for just over a year in 1969 (Navy) We love Malta and the lovely Maltese people.
I always thought that although the world is changing for the worse, that Malta would remain unchanged.
Thank you for your beautiful videos, they bring back fond memories.
Wow! That's brilliant to hear you were in Malta in 1969. Yeah it is changing drastically unfortunately. I appreciate your comment.
Malta is a little gem 👌.. there are dwellings and remains underground that date a thousand years before the pyramids.. it never ceases to fascinate
Hi Rich! It is a little gem indeed, but we constantly have to strive to keep it safe from the madness of constructions that is going on. Histroy shall be preserved for the next generations.
malta was never the same since the EU got its grubby hands on it.
Certainly!
F the EU!
The people of Marsa have had to live with the stigma of being from Marsa for many decades, bearing the brunt of everything that the rest of the Maltese population did not want on their doorstep. Being called 'the most dangerous' neighbourhood for obvious click-bait does not benefit anybody except yourself. Marsa has been ignored by both political parties when in government, and the total abandonment you're seeing here is the result of years and years of disregard by the Maltese government. Marsa has benefited Malta and gone downhill as a result. It's about time this town and its people are recognised for what they've suffered.
We still remember that area many years ago! What a change!
It has changed a lot indeed in the recent years.
Thanks for the video. Never knew it was called Albert Town, but it looks very familiar. When attending high school just up the road from there we used to come down to the bars to buy "Ftira" for lunch. I suppose what you did not mention is that 50 years ago that place was Malta's commercial hub, before the freeport was opened, hence all the warehouses. It definitely needs a clean up, and an upgrade. Cheers and Thanks.
Interesting Victor to read your story. I agree about the clean up and upgrade. Thanks for your comment!
Great Video, Albert town to the world.
It sure is! 😀👊 Cheers for the comment.
The submarine was used in the Bon jovi movie
Yeah I need to see that movie. Thanks
So Sad for the wonderful Maltese people 😮
In other countries the whole situation is dangerous.Malta I think is a safe place.I visited this week.Yes.Wonderful Malta
100%! Thanks for your comment.
Am here supporting
Appreciated bro!
Growing up in the murder capital of Europe (Glasgow), I have a feeling I will be fine.
John you will! When I lived in Scotland (Perthshire), they always reminded me to watch out in Glasgow but I never had any issues there. Well, things change!
@@GordonTravels it’s better now than it was in 2010. Really it’s not as bad as it’s made out to be, it’s just certain parts of it have a really violent reputation and that image follows. Keep your head down and most of the time you will be fine (except on rare occasions).
Really interesting thank you. I had never heard of it before.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Dave!
Gordon when did you film this as a US Naval ship visited in April and the sub looks WW2 vintage US too.
Hi Bill! I filmed this in July 2022. I heard about that US Naval Ship that was close by to where I was but had left the island before getting to it.
@@GordonTravels Hi Gordon! I'm trying to see if there's any mention of what was visiting at the time. It's got a black hull pennant number, so it narrows it down a little!
Also the submarine may be from the TV series Das Boot (2018-) as I found an article from tvmnews. RUclips won't let me post the link though!
Bill, there was, The USS Ross (DDG 71) in April 2022 and The USS SAN JACINTO (CG-56) in June 2022 over here. Yes, they told me the Submarine was either for the movie Das Boot or U-571 movie.
I've been through there, and never felt threatened.
Sadly the area is worn down due to all the abandoned buildings.
Rupert, it constantly changes by time (I never felt threatened too) and because it is worn down some use that as a shield to do their thing discreetly.
I worked at the Centre for migrants as a nurse about 10 years ago right next to the Tiger bar. It used to be a school but was closed down because of the smell from a nearby abattoir. Not the prettiest part of the island. But it is what it is.
Thanks Dave for your service. You must have countless stories working there.
VR Means Victoria Regina. In other words the canal and bridge was built during the reign of Queen Victoria. I walked the area a few years ago we walked from the waterfront all the was through to Marsha and then to Zabbar. Never really felt threatened but you do need to not look like a lost tourist though.😎
Thanks for that information. I would love to see that bridge being renovated someday.
Thanks for the tour bro. I didn't know that there was a Juventus club hehe 😁⚽
You are welcome! Actaully tere are 2 Juventus clubs in Malta.
Should be curious to see how it is at night and inside tiger bar. Hope someone will film it.
Could be a good video.
The submarine was never functional, it was made for the 2000 U571 film which had scenes filmed in Malta. Officially its assigned as "Dock no 7" but us locals call it the ship cemetery. There are vessels that have been abandoned for years. It's also engulfed in a horrible stench.
Thanks for the info. @TransDemonQueen yep that stench is hard not to notice.
Yes you are correct in saying this also Bon jovi is acting in this movie
@@GordonTravels Since then the area has been undergoing a clean up.
@@TrashQueenRoyale that's fantastic to hear! I am planning a Re-visit soon. Stay Tuned!
V R
on that stone structure...
Could it mean VICTORIA REGINA (Queen Victoria)?
Yes! For Queen Victoria... you are right. Spot on!
My grandmother is from Albert town all I know is that criminal activity's was always known in that area starting from contraband to prostitution.
Also do not forget Albert town was a massive cemetery back in the ottoman empire you can still find human remains easily.
Thanks for your comment. Your grandmother must have some great stories to tell. Yeah, Albert Town has a bad reputation when it comes to contraband to prostitution.
Haven’t seen any sign of it in the video tough.
I (female tourists) was here (by mistake) today. It looks like any other port/warehouse area. I have been in Portugal, in a small harbor town, and it looked like Marsa. It is not scary, it is just run down. Putting poor people in same category as criminals is very sad. You will ind more criminals in rich place areas.
btw if you want to see empty houses that are not in use for a long time, go to Mellieha. Villa after villa for sale, I ve passed by several 6-bedroom houses that look very sad
Minute 12.11 this is not Albert town. 6 story building was a flour mill and after this is grain silos this road is all business today
Yes, it is just outside of it (as the map shows). Interesting that that building was a flour mill, thanks for sharing.
That was scary! I think I'm not going to sleep tonight. This was pure Hell.
I live in malta
...damn - it's so dangerous I'ved shit in my pants
That's some shitty business boy! :)
F 212/is a German Frigate!
Thanks Joseph, I will look that up.
Batmans butler Albert.
Gotham city of Malta 🇲🇹
I live near rabat
Joanne, I will shoot in Rabat soon. Anything you would like me to film?
Grazzi for your video Not a soul jn the streets
It is definitly not the most dangerous....cospicua is much more dangerous
I still have to go there vlogging. Thanks
Cannabis? For shit sake. Weed is legal most everywhere in the world. Get a life Malta.
Rules have changed in 2021...allowing consumers to possess, buy and grow adult-use cannabis.
Yah, Canada here - we can own it, smoke it where-ever. @@GordonTravels
As a Maltese citizen your videos really annoy me. You are pestering people and expecting they talk to you while you are making a video that portrays them as villains. On the contrary, the video showcases very well your idiocy. Let people live and for the love of internet, post content that is mildly interesting not this garbage.
As a Maltese 'Karen' citizen, go watch Love Island.
If you don't like Malta go away no one told you to come here I'm blessed that I am Maltese
Clearly you didn't watch the video. I am Maltese.
Lmao I was waiting days for this comment 😂😂😂😂. Typical Maltese! Clearly the guy in the video is Maltese how can you not hear his accent? It’s your native tone! Im impressed by the everyday stupidity here. Great video Gordon
@@Gangreen420 legend
When did he say he doesn’t like Malta ? Cannot believe how people are stupid, not even able to get a reasonable judgement.
