It is worth taking a trip on the 55 bus to Naxxar. Saint Paul himself would have agreed, since his ship went aground here and said afterwards that the people of Naxxar were the first on the scene of a shipwreck, sleeves rolled up ready to help. The name itself is richly suggestive of various possible etymologies. Opinions are divided:
Naxxar could be derived from Nassar (Nasra), which means 'conversion to Christianity'. Or else it comes from “Nsara” or “Nazaroei” which means 'those who believe in the wisdom of Christ, the Nazarene (“Nozri”)’. Others claim the name makes reference to sawyers, Naxxar being something of a Mecca for stonemasons. Whatever the case, this also happens to be a great place to be investing right now. There are a number of very high-quality new developments in Naxxar, including office blocks, duplex developments and apartments with garage parking.
Whether for a holiday rental investment or a house with character, whether already refurbished or still needing a refit, or for an off-plan investment, Naxxar could be the choice for you.
