Numerous bus routes terminate at the Valletta Bus Terminal, just a short walk from St. Ursula Street. Check&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/publictransport.com.mt\/\">publictransport.com.mt<\/a>&nbsp;for routes and timetables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>By Car<\/strong><br>Parking in Valletta is limited. We recommend using the&nbsp;<strong>Park and Ride<\/strong>&nbsp;facility at Floriana, just outside the city gates, and walking into Valletta. St. Ursula Street is a short walk from the main city entrance through the historic City Gate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>On Foot<\/strong><br>If you are staying in or near Valletta, the church is easily walkable. Follow St. Ursula Street \u2014 one of Valletta&#8217;s charming Baroque thoroughfares \u2014 and look for the modest fa\u00e7ade of St. Roque&#8217;s Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>By Ferry<\/strong><br>If you are coming from Sliema or the Three Cities, the Valletta Ferry Service offers a scenic and convenient crossing directly into the Grand Harbour area, a short walk from the church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-to-expect\">What to Expect<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Orthodox worship is a rich, multi-sensory experience of prayer, incense, chant, and iconography. We warmly encourage first-time visitors to simply come as they are. Modest dress is appreciated \u2014 shoulders and knees covered as a sign of reverence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have any questions before your visit, don&#8217;t hesitate to reach out to&nbsp;<strong>Fr.
