Hastings Garden is a petite city garden perched on the western bastions of the city wall. Named after the former British governor of Malta, Hastings Gardens is home to several monuments scattered amongst its greenery, including one dedicated to Lord Hastings. Besides the scenic Maltese landscape of shrubbery and trees, the garden also boasts spectacular views of nearby towns across the ocean harbour as well as the city’s own spiralling peaks and towers. Make sure to drop by just before dusk to witness the stunning brilliance of the orange sun as it makes its fiery descent behind the distant cityscape. If you want to soak in the tranquil environment, there are seats aplenty here you can stop and relax. Atop the great fortified city of Valletta, Hastings Gardens is a charming oasis where you will experience the true scale of the city’s beauty and might.
