Not as well-preserved as upper and lower gardens but they do offer nice views on the sea!

Zum Garten muss man einige Stufen gehen, aber es lohnt sich sehr für die Aussicht. Der Garten ist nicht so überlaufen wie beispielsweise Upper Gardens und ist mindestens genauso schön.

Quiet and beautiful garden. A bit hidden from tourists, it offers shade, views of the city, and a wonderful spot to see the sunset. It also has a small kiosk to order beverages, ice cream, and food. It's definitely a great place to relax in the evening after a hot and busy day discovering Valetta and Malta.

Ein perfekter ruhiger Ort für Entspannung. Man kann auch einfach spazieren oder die schöne Aussicht genießen. Tolle Parkanlage.

A peaceful garden overlooking the busy square below. There are olive trees, cannons, and fantastic views over the city. I even saw people walking on the wall, but that's so risky so don't do it. Everything is in pristine condition.

The many amazing places of Valletta, Malta. Valletta is impressive. It’s not like most other cities. The vibe and the tiny roads are a Maltese signature. The gardens are beautiful too and definitely impressive. Valletta is naturally beautiful, it’s a gem 💎 like no other. Overlooking the Malta port is amazing too. More reasons to love Malta and Maltese culture. This is an amazing city and a great garden to kill time or enjoy your day.

Beautiful and very peaceful garden - not many people there at all.

Pretty much panoramic views, from the Triton fountain and Floriana round to Valletta’s famous dome, including views of Sliema and Manoel Island & fort.
The look-out towers are not accessible to the public, but it’s nice to get up close to them anyway. There are also some canons, and it’s pretty impressive just seeing how thick the city walls are. Plenty of benches and there is a cafe/bar (which was closed on the Sunday we visited).

It would have been nice to have had some plaques of information, such as who the tomb/temple is dedicated to, or about the city walls and it’s structure.

Sehr schön angelegter Park direkt hinter dem Eingang in die Altstadt von Valetta wenn man vom Bus Terminal kommt. Super Blick auf die Stadt, das Meer und Sliema. Sehr gepflegt, ganz sauber und kaum Besucher. Wirklich schön.
