Mosta this located in the center of the island of Malta. Its main
attraction is the monumental church, whose design this inspired by the
Pantheon of Rome. The cupola is the fourth but great one of Europe,
the other three are in Rome, London and Xewkija, in the neighboring
island of Gozo. Its construction began in 1833 and it was devoted in
1871. It was built around and upon another previous church. It was
constructed of voluntary form by the workers of the place and for that
reason this church, as most of the churches of Malta faith monuments
can be considered. In 1942 a pump of five hundred kilograms fell on
the cathedral, broke the cupola but it did not explode.

Mosta esta situado en el medio de la isla de Malta. Su principal atraccion es la monumental iglesia, cuyo diseño esta inspirado en el Panteon de Roma. La cúpula es la cuarta mas grande de Europa, las otras tres estan en Roma, Londres y Xewkija, en la vecina isla de Gozo. Su construccion comenzó en 1833 y se consagró en 1871. Fue edificada alrededor y encima de otra iglesia anterior. Fue construida de forma voluntaria por los trabajadores del lugar y por eso esta iglesia, como la mayor parte de las iglesias de Malta pueden considerarse monumentos de fe.
En 1942 una bomba de quinientos kilos cayo sobre la catedral, agujereo la cúpula pero no explotó.

My biggest travel tip for Malta is to NEVER get a taxi, buses are not only reliable but 4000% cheaper! For example a bus from the airport cost 1.16 Euro a taxi 30Euro for an 8km journey??! I digress, this day started with a bus from Sliema to Mosta…… Mosta
