Bubaqra
Bubaqra is a small, rural area in Żurrieq, in the south-east of Malta. It is situated between the zones of Nigret and Ħal Far. Has a population of 2,000 people. Even though it is one of the oldest areas in this village, many new buildings are being constructed and this area is searched most by newlyweds who come to live in this quiet, airy area. At the centre of this zone, a small church is situated, dedicated to our Holy Mary. A few metres away, there is also the churchyard of this village dedicated to St. Leon.
==Overview==
A lot of Maltese mock the name of this area since in Maltese the name literally means 'owner of the cow'. However, the name of this area originated from ''Bubakra'' (from ''Bakkar''), literally meaning 'to wake up early'. With the surrounding area consisting of mainly fields and rural areas, the people of this area used to "get up early to start working their fields".
In around 1579, the Bubaqra Tower was built on the outskirts of this zone. It was built as a country retreat by a member of the Order of St. John, and was used for defensive purposes at some points. The tower is currently privately owned, and it has been restored.
