Exploring the Three Cities in Malta felt like discovering a well-kept secret. These historic cities — Vittoriosa, Senglea, and Cospicua — are rich in culture, stunning architecture, and incredible views, but without the crowds of Valletta. 🏰✨ Wandering through their narrow, winding streets, you’re transported back to the time of the Knights of St. John. The fortifications, the old maritime charm, and the cozy cafes by the waterfront make it an unforgettable experience. ☕🌅 One of the highlights is the view of the Grand Harbour, which is especially breathtaking when you get to the higher points of the cities. 🚢 It's a great place to take a peaceful stroll, away from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy areas. Whether you’re into history, photography, or just soaking in the atmosphere, the Three Cities are a must-visit in Malta. 🌟 #celebrateit

It’s a great spot for photos and a morning coffee by the harbor. • Fort St. Angelo: Visit this impressive fort that played a critical role in Malta’s defense, especially during the Great Siege of 1565.
