List Of Cities In Malta
By the usual standards that most other countries use when designating a city, Malta's cities would be too small to be considered such. There are, however, a small number of communities traditionally regarded as cities by virtue of receiving the designation of "città " during the rule of the Knights of St John (and one during the British rule). In Maltese law, there is no distinction made between cities, towns, and villages; the status is purely honorary. Malta is divided into 68 local councils.

“Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“Today as in the time of Pliny and Columella, the hyacinth flourishes in Wales, the periwinkle in Illyria, the daisy on the ruins of Numantia; while around them cities have changed their masters and their names, collided and smashed, disappeared into nothingness, their peaceful generations have crossed down the ages as fresh and smiling as on the days of battle.”
—Edgar Quinet (1803–1875)
