We walked through the narrow streets, past the parliament and other official government buildings, and the Upper Barrakka Gardens, free public gardens that had a beautiful view of the water, Silema and parts of Valletta.

There are also different swimming points, harbours full of boats and lots of activities for anyone looking to enjoy their vacation.
