It's quite amazing to see temples that even older than the Pyramids.If you're interested in historical sights this is well worth a visit.There's a museum where you can read about the discovery andthe excavations & then you go through & see the ancient templesthemselves. I was on a hop on/hop off tour & this was a site I justhad to get off and explore.I'm glad I did!

We visited when the Centre was largely closed but the temples, now covered for preservation were impressive and unmissible

These are well worth a trip out to Xaghra, good museum entrance with lots of information then the outside temples are easily accessible on boardwalks. The size of these Neolithic temples are awesome, older than the pyramids.

There is a nice museum to give you background information as you enter the area. We found the information helped us understand what we would see much better. The ruins are worth a visit.

Thank you for submitting your review. As you rightly pointed out, the significance of the Ġgantija Temple complex lies in its antiquity, as its date of construction goes back over 5,000 years ago. Although the roofing of the temples has been lost over time, Ġgantija and all the prehistoric temples of Malta are very much considered as buildings. The megalithic walls that are made up of gargantuan slabs of local stone are the most striking feature in this monument which is a true testimony to the extraordinary building skills of our Neolithic ancestors. Site interpretation is not only limited to information signs but include a number of audio-visuals that feature commentaries by experts, reconstructions and demonstrations that help in the understanding of the site’s importance. We are however continuously striving to improve the visitors’ experience of the site and the inclusion of more interactive facilities in the future will definitely help to bring the site to life. Thank you.
