The shaded gardens feature a central fountain, statues, and colonnaded terraces that offer panoramic views of Malta’s Grand Harbour. Visitors can stroll through the lush greenery, admire the intricate stonework, and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere while taking in the historical and maritime significance of the setting.
