| About Munxar: |
A swift after-sunsets ten-minute walk southwest of the
capital Victoria takes you to the outskirts of a tiny
Gozitan village of Munxar. Wedged between the sloping
sides of two parallel valleys Munxar offers some of
the most beautiful landscapes in Gozo. The name Munxar
is old Maltese meaning 'bucksaw'. The name most probably
originated from the spectacular imagery of zigzagged
cliff faces from the Bardan Heights nearby. Munxar is
also caressed by the beautiful Ghancija valley on the
Munxar side. This valley forks into Xlendi valley which
is on the Fontana side, with both valleys joining together
to finally end up in the popular Xlendi Bay |
