      The Roman Villa on Malta is an archaeological site located in the town of Rabat, just outside the walls of the ancient city of Mdina. The villa was discovered in 1881 and is believed to have been built in the 1st century AD during the Roman period.

      The Roman Villa is a well-preserved site that provides insight into the luxurious lifestyles of the Roman elite. The site includes several large rooms with intricate mosaics depicting scenes from mythology, as well as a central courtyard and a number of smaller rooms. The villa is believed to have been a wealthy person's country retreat, with its location on the outskirts of the city providing a quiet and peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life.

      Some of the highlights of the villa include the "Orpheus Mosaic," which depicts the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, and the "Labours of Hercules Mosaic," which portrays the 12 labours of the Greek hero Hercules. The villa also includes a number of smaller mosaics depicting animals, floral motifs, and geometric designs.
