Doors of Valletta

I’ve always enjoyed photographing doors.  Valleta, Malta’s capital city, had many interesting doors to photograph when I visited.  In particular, I liked the older fonts found on many of the doors and signs.  Here are some of my favorites!

    These are all such beautiful photos. I have always enjoyed all of the doors that you’ve posted before, and the are no exception.

      Thanks! I do like doors. I’m headed back to the Yucatan for Christmas, and hoping to get some nice door shots in Merida and Campeche.

        Ahh man you’re making me jealous. I lived in Yucatan for.a couple years and it’s one of my favorite places. Just took the family there in September and that’s actually how I found your blog because I was looking for photos to show them when we were planning the trip. I can’t wait to see your future posts!

    Hey Peter! I am so glad I found your blog. I live (part time) in Merida (Yucatan) and I enjoy looking at your pictures from all those places you’ve visited. I have a question on these pictures of the doors of Valletta. I noticed a drain located exactly under most doors. Is there a specific reason or purpose for these drains to be located at the entrance doors?

    Just curious 🙂

      Hi, could it just be for drainage? I hadn’t really noticed until you mentioned it. I was in Merida and Campeche over Christmas, I got some nice pictures in Campeche but it may be awhile before they’re online. Thanks for the comment!
