Watch: Forget The Clubs, This TikToker Came To Malta For The Churches

A TikTok posted by @catholicwithemily while visiting Malta is currently doing numbers, racking up 151,000 views with a joke that has struck a chord with viewers.

The video is captioned: “suggesting a girls’ trip to Malta knowing it’s one of the most Catholic countries”, before revealing the punchline: “Time to visit every church and every church shop.”

The humour plays on the stereotype of a girls’ trip being all about parties and nightlife, only for one member of the group to be far more excited about exploring Malta’s countless churches and religious souvenir shops instead.

The wholesome twist has resonated with viewers, with the video quickly gaining traction as people appreciate the light-hearted take on travelling around one of the world’s most Catholic countries.

Would your ideal Malta itinerary be all about nightclubs or exploring the island’s stunning hidden gems?
