Ta 'Qali Crafts Village
In buildings and sheds there are artisan companies that convert glass, ceramics, precious metals into beautiful products. At the goldsmith you can see how jewellery is made and, in the glassworks, you can see how something is made of glass.
Mdina Glass is at a different location not far from the centre, we have included a marker on our map (guide) in the app. 35.891559, 14.422455.
Outside the Crafts Village you can find BOV Adventure Park, Malta Aviation museum, Family Picnic area, Crafts Village, Ta’Qali National Park and the Sunday market. These are described separately in this guide.
HISTORY AND BACKGROUND
In the period 1943 and 1950 this park was part of the Royal Air Force airport with supporting buildings.
With the arrival of the Luqa airport facilities, this airport became superfluous.
When the runways were no longer used, car races were organized.
The biographical war film 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi was largely shot in Malta in 2016 and is about the Benghazi attack of 2012, in which Muslim militants attacked an American diplomatic camp in Libya. A large film set was built for this in Ta 'Qali.
