“In a time when many people around the world are separated from one another due to the COVID-19 pandemic restrictio­ns, museums and cultural sites are currently playing a very important role to bring humanity together. While we are coming up with various initiative­s to offer virtual tours to the public, nothing compares to actually visiting the site and experienci­ng it personally,” explained Heritage Malta CEO, Noel Zammit.
