hkskyline's 2017 in Valletta, Malta

Valletta was built by the Knights of St. John on a long and narrow peninsula. The planners built tall enough to shade the streets from the sun and straight streets to let the sea breeze blow in. It was heavily fortified, fearing the Turks would invade.

Buses terminate just outside the old city walls and it is an easy walk into the centre. There was a lot of construction happening to build a large public plaza.
