Mnajdra (pronounced 'Imnaidra', Maltese L-Imnajdra) is an outstanding ensemble of prehistoric temples in Malta. It consists of the double temple with the maple-leaf-shaped, five-part structure typical of Maltese large temples, and a separate, older temple with only three parts. The cult site was used from the Żebbuġ to the Tarxien phase. The double temple has existed since the Ġgantija phase of the temple culture (3,800 BC). A stylized form of Mnajdra is depicted on Maltese copper-plated steel coins (1, 2, 5c). The temples have been included in the National Inventory of the Cultural Property of the Maltese Islands and have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992.

The striking entrance gate of the temple complex graces every Maltese 1-, 2- and 5-cent coin.

You can buy tickets at the Hagar Qim visitor center and then visit both temples, which are only 400 m apart from each other.
