i/vəˈlɛtʌ/ ؛Il-Belt، البلد)، جن کي "عجز ترين شهر" (Città Umilissima) جي نالي سان پڻ سڃاتو وڃي ٿو،[2] مالٽا جو گاديءَ جو هنڌ ۽ ان جي 68 ڪائونسل علائقن مان هڪ آهي. اوڀر ۾ گرينڊ هاربر ۽ اولهه ۾ مارسا مڪسيٽ هاربر جي وچ ۾ واقع آهي. 2021ع تائين ان جي آبادي 5,157 هئي. [3] مالٽا جي گاديءَ واري شهر جي طور تي، اهو شاپنگ، بار، کاڌي ۽ ڪيفي جي زندگي لاءِ هڪ تجارتي مرڪز آهي.[4] اهو يورپ جو سڀ کان ڏاکڻي گاديءَ جو هنڌ پڻ آهي ۽ صرف 0.61 چورس ڪلوميٽر (0.24 چورس ميل) تي، پکيڙ جي لحاظ کان اهو يورپي يونين جو سڀ کان ننڍو گاديءَ جو هنڌ آهي.[5][6]
Valletta's 16th-century buildings were constructed by the Knights Hospitaller. The city was named after the Frenchman Jean Parisot de Valette, who succeeded in defending the island against an Ottoman invasion during the Great Siege of Malta. The city is Baroque in character, with elements of Mannerist, Neo-Classical and Modern architecture, though the Second World War left major scars on the city, particularly the destruction of the Royal Opera House. The city was officially recognised as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1980.[7] The city has 320 monuments, all within an area of 0.55 square kilometres (0.21 sq mi), making it one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world.[7][8] Sometimes called an "open-air museum",[9] Valletta was chosen as the European Capital of Culture for 2018. Valletta was also listed as the sunniest city in Europe in 2016.[10][11]
The city is noted for its fortifications, consisting of bastions, curtains and cavaliers, along with the beauty of its Baroque palaces, gardens and churches.
