WaySide Chapel - Gudja







Since today is a Sunday my post is about this pretty chapel situated on the outskirts of Gudja village. Having it's back side facing the 'Hal far' road which runs adjacent to the Malta International airport runway. It's surrounded by agricultural land with fruit trees leaning onto the narrow winding path that leads to and from the village.

In one of the photos you can see the runway and an Airmalta plane about to the take off.

That's the chapel of Our Lady of Loreto, the patron saint of aviators. However the chapel was built first and then the runway
