UPDATE - March 8, 2017:
A severe Mediterranean storm has destroyed Malta's landmark arch.
See News Report (in German) or in English

No trip to Gozo, Malta would be complete with seeing the stunning Azure Window. This natural opening, straight and perpendicular, is cut into the rock with an equally straight and huge horizontal roof. The Blue Window, as it's also known, draws tourists and locals alike to sketch and photograph this wonder of the Maltese islands.

Type of Material:
