Sliema: Attractions and more...
The Sliema promontory offers on one side stunning views across to Valletta
and on the other, open sea views. The promenade, which runs for several kilometres
from Gzira just south of Sliema to St Julian's, is ideal for walker and joggers.
There are plenty of seats along the promenade and on summer evenings the seafront
becomes a sociable meeting place for locals. The coastline has two tower fortifications:
a De Redin watch tower built in the 17th century; the other was built by the
British in neo-gothic style in the 1880s.
