"The garden terrace promises one of the best views of Malta. An unhindered, panoramic view the only natural harbour in the Mediterranean, with the three cities; Birgu, Senglea and Cospicua as a backdrop. The gardens themselves host a collection of busts, statues and plaques that denote various personalities and other significant events in Maltese history, the most noteworthy being a bronze piece by famous Maltese sculptor, Antonio Sciortino. ‘Les Gavroches‘ depicts three children hurrying forward, with the statue itself signifying the extreme hardships faced by the Maltese population at the turn of the 20th century."

"Gorgeous (free) gardens that are a must see! Every day at noon they shoot the cannons off. You can watch for free from these gardens, or pay to be a little closer through the museum downstairs. "

"Great view of the 3 cities (Birgu, Bormla, Isla) & the Grand Harbour. Canons go off at 12:00 & 16:00.
💶 You can also use the life or stairs down to the harbour (useful if catching the ferry)."
