San Anton Gardens, located in Valletta, Malta, encircle an ornate palazzo built in 1636 by Grand Master of the Knights of St John, Antoine de Paule, as his summer residence. Today, the palazzo serves as the official residence of the Maltese President. The gardens, bequeathed to the public in 1882, offer a tranquil retreat with lush greenery, manicured hedges, and vibrant flower beds. Visitors can stroll along the shaded pathways, enjoy the serene ponds, and observe the variety of flora and fauna, making it a peaceful escape from the bustling city.
