Two 400-year-old gardens in Valletta will be opening to the public for the first time during the Valletta Green Festival from Friday to Sunday.
The festival is a Valletta 2018 initiative injecting colour into an otherwise urban landscape. The gardens lie in the heart of St Catherine’s Monastery, a 16th-century building in Republic Street run by cloistered nuns and the Archbishop’s Palace in Archbishop Street.
Both gardens will be open between 9am and noon and again between 4pm and 7pm during the three days of the festival.
