Malta is a conglomeration of islands in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. The island nation lies directly south of Sicily, east of Tunisia and north of Libya. The island has an official holiday on 1st January, and the New Year's Eve in Malta is widely celebrated. Feasting and drinking are an integral part of such celebrations and Maltese cooking is a mix between original cooking of the islanders and those of
the immigrants, that is, the people who originated elsewhere but has made Malta their home. Many popular Maltese delicacies are Sicilian or Moorish in origin. The foreign influence on Maltese culture is even more apparent on festive occasions like New Year's Eve in Malta.
New Year's Eve celebration is not only confined to islanders but many tourists also take part in the gala events to welcome the New Year. For people who had been there, the experience of New Year's Eve in Malta is unforgettable. Malta has one the wildest night life in the whole of the European continent and obviously this is one of the prime attractions for thousands of revelers. |
