Gozo's Villages 

Gozo`s 29,000 inhabitants live in Victoria, the main town, and in thirteen villages. The villages still conserve their identity. A big village square, often dominated by a big church, is the start and the end of a number of roads that radiate to all corners of the village. Street corners are often embellished by niches with statues. Despite the leap into the third millennium, the villages of Gozo still proudly practise a way of life not much different from that of their forefathers.
