  • This colourful harbour is a lovely place to stroll around. Fairly lively with local fishermen at work.

    There are a handful of bars and restaurants, a daily tourist market with a larger one on Sundays, and the parish church of 'Our Lady of Pompei' which dominates the centre of the harbour front.

  • Upper Barracca Gardens is Velletta's prettiest park. Dating back to 1775, it provides wonderful views as it overlooks the Grand Harbour, the old towns of Senglea and Vittorosa, the dockyards and the lower parts of the capital.

    There is a small cafe and plenty of places to sit down, in and out of the sun.

    Amongst several others, look out for the statue of Winston Churchill.
