More Information

Walking through Vittoriosa feels like stepping back in time with its narrow streets and stunning sea views. The city, rich in history and culture, also offers a peaceful environment to relax. One of its hidden gems is the Santa Margherita Lines, a 17th-century fortification designed by the Order of Saint John for defense. Part of these fortifications has been transformed into a public green space called Ġnien Fuq il-Glażiż. Once a neglected forest, the 9,000m² garden now offers picnic areas, a unique play area with climbing ropes and a zipline, and a dog park. The garden promotes sustainability with eco-friendly materials and solar-powered lighting.
