Maltese bus
The Maltese
bus known as the ‘Xarabank’ or also the ‘karozza tal-linja’ was a unique type
of bus that is found
no longer exists around the world. The Maltese bus was
stemmed by Maltese drivers. Each bus had a unique appearance due the details
and decoration each one have on it. The ‘tberfil’ many times is made on the
buses to have a nicer look. It was also a tourist attraction and many of the
tourists that come to Malta also used it as the main transport to visit places
around the small island of Malta. The Maltese traditional bus had operated from
1920-2011. In my opinion this was a very good thing that distinguishes you from
other countries in the world.
Characteristics of the Maltese bus
- paint
details of the ‘tberfil’ (patterns, and also words with different font.)
-Names
and nick names and also names of village feasts
-quotations
and detailing.
Today
the Maltese bus is only used for special occasions like for the graduation
students, as school buses and other important events.
I
compared the Maltese bus to the Thailand bus. This is because it has the same
colors. The shape is also like the Maltese bus in design. It is also used as a
transport for people.
