The Three Kings arrived in Mellieha this morning and will be continuing on their way to Bethlehem f'Ghajnsielem this afternoon.

The kings started their journey in Cologne, Germany - which hosts the Shrine of the Three Kings, a reliquary said to contain the bones of the Biblical Magi.

The 'kings' or wise men left Manikata this morning and headed to Mellieha visiting the home for the elderly and then making their way to the parish square. They will then cross to Gozo.

Meanwhile, a sizeable crowd also gathered in Xaghra this morning, to greet another Three Kings who arrived in the locality bearing gifts for the newly born King.
