Arts and crafts workshops at Ta'Qali are housed in the old Nissen huts on this WWII RAF airfield, and have a slightly shanty town look, but are well worth a look. You can watch glass-blowers at work, and shop for gold, silver and filigree jewellery, paintings by local artists, leather goods, Maltese lace, furniture, ceramics and ornamental glass.
It's about 2km from the bus terminus in Rabat to the village.
To reach here, take the X3 from Buġibba or Mdina, or the 51, 52, or 53 from Valletta or Mdina. The 201, 202 and 203 run between here, Mosta, Mdina and Dingli.
Ta'Qali is also used for occasional music festivals.
