View of the Mediterranean Sea from the cliffs of Dingli, Malta

From the cliffs there are views inland of nearby Buskett Gardens and Verdala Palace. The countryside here is ideal for walking. Dingli today is a quiet, rural area though in late medieval times it was one of Malta's earliest and largest parishes. Before Dingli, there was another smaller village called Ħal-Tartarni, village of Tartarns, which is now obsolete. The parish church of St. Mary, originally built in 1678, dominates the skyline. The streets around it are narrow and winding and typical of an old agricultural village. Perched on the cliff top is the smaller wayside chapel of St. Mary Magdalene, dating from 1646. Within the limits of Dingli are a number of cart ruts' at Clapham Junction, unexplained parallel tracks hewn in the rock, and several megalithic structures.
