Din l-Art Ħelwa Tour − Dwejra Tower, Wied il-Mielaħ window, Cittadella Gozo
On Saturday, 27 May Din l-Art Helwa is organising a Gozo tour. The tour will start at 9am with the first stop being at Dwejra Tower where the group will be welcomed by the Tower warden who will give a brief talk about the tower and the Dwejra area with its spectacular views, which include Fungus Rock, the Inland Sea and, sadly, the missing window.
The next stop will be the Wied ilMielaħ window to view the structure and the sinkhole erosion features nearby.
The tour will next take the group to the Cittadella, (winner of the Din l-Art Ħelwa Architecture Prix d’Honneur for Regeneration Projects) where participants can walk around the newly refurbished bastions, the ditch and the quaint streets. Time-permitting, there will be a stop for tea/coffee before return to Mgarr terminal.
Ian Camilleri, a volunteer with DLH, will coordinate this tour in collaboration with the Gozo DLH sub-committee. Join them for a splendid early-summer morning outing. • A donation of €10 paid in advance will secure booking and cover minivan costs.
