Promise me that you will go to Malta to heal yourself once in your life

The heart of the Mediterranean hides the blue romance that heals the entire universe! “If there is a paradise on earth, it must look like Malta.” As I stood by the Blue Lagoon, watching the sunlight shatter into millions of sapphires and fall to the bottom of the sea, these words suddenly exploded in my mind. This country, which is only 1/20 the size of Shanghai, has taken the blue of the whole world into its eyes, written 7,000 years of history into a poem, and even brought fairy tales into reality. At this moment, I just want to use the camera and words to take you into this wonderland where even my breathing becomes lighter. [Valletta through time and space: every frame is a movie] "Welcome to the kingdom of knights and sea gods." When I first arrived in the capital Valletta, I was shocked by the majesty of the Triton Fountain at first sight - the water column held up by the son of Poseidon refracted a rainbow in the sun, as if declaring: everything here is filtered through a mythology. The medieval cobblestone roads wind and undulate, and there are always surprises at the end of the Inception-like streets: perhaps the same scene as in Game of Thrones, or the aroma of almond cake wafting from the coffee shop on the corner. Check-in -Old Mint Street: The steepest sloping street in Malta. The candy-colored doors and windows on both sides look like a palette overturned by God. A casual shot of it will give you the retro aesthetics of "The Grand Budapest Hotel". -St. John's Cathedral: It looks low-key on the outside, but its interior is a masterpiece of Baroque style with gold and authentic Caravaggio works. It is a place where you have to breathe lightly. - Barakha Gardens: At 12 noon, with the sound of the salute, the red roofs overlooking the Three Sisters City spread out in the blue sea. I suddenly thought I had entered the CG animation of "Assassin's Creed". I climbed up the city wall in the evening, and the setting sun gilded the entire ancient city. I suddenly understood why the Knights were willing to protect this place with their lives - some beauty is really worth swearing an oath with blood. [Blue, so blue that it makes your soul leave your body] "The sea water here is the purest blue in God's palette." The sea in Malta can make people suffer from "blue withdrawal syndrome" - after leaving, other sea waters seem to be mixed with impurities. Blue attractions -Blue Lagoon (Comino Island): A coral maze is hidden under the jelly-like water, and snorkeling feels like swimming into the dreamland of "Life of Pi". -Blue Cave: Row a boat through a natural cave, the sunlight penetrates the sea water, and the entire cave instantly turns into a sapphire mine. -Coral Lagoon: A hidden bay under the cliff, like a lost blue tear, a private "Underwater Louvre" for snorkeling enthusiasts. Rent a transparent kayak in the Blue Lagoon and lie down and let the waves rock you. The blue that is so beautiful that it makes people want to cry can only be greedily collected with the eyes. Perhaps the meaning of traveling is to suddenly understand your own heart in some strange place.
