I was one of many hundreds that accepted the government's invitation to visit the newly-restored Villa Francia.
What a gem our country has inherited! The painstaking restoration has preserved this fantastic house and gardens in the beautiful village of Lija for generations to come.
One cannot imagine the wealth that at times is just hidden behind closed doors, some of which, unfortunately, are never to be opened. In this case, luckily, the property came into the hands of the state and now it is back to its former glory.
