The Three Cities
These three localities are ones of the few places that kept their identity and character due to their rich history and to this day they still promote the Cittaslow movement. Although Malta is becoming more modernised and developed and influenced by Modern globalisation ,some towns and cities are still fighting to keep their identity.
The first thing you will notice in the 3 cities is that its hard to find new apartments and buildings , and instead old terraced and town houses are being refurbished but not demolished as unfortunately the trend is in places like St Julians Birkirkara Sliema etc.
You still find very few family owned Restaurants and cafeterias from the early 1950s still running to this day.
Im happy and proud to say that the part of Cospicua that touches with the Limits of Vittoriosa has plenty of green area where you can take a long walk if you are feeling restless.
In my opinion a large green area in every town and city should be a must.
Although not everything is good and dandy , here where I live we have a huge problem with parking space due to the exaggerated inflation of cars and since these three cities are not build to accommodate modernisation due to narrow streets and very few Garages compared to other neighbouring cities.
In my opinion which might sound bit extreme and crazy , the government should implement a law which states that if you don’t suffer from any medical or physical condition , before you acquire the car driving license it is mandatory that you learn how to drive a motorcycle first. I am 100% confident that we would see the rise in 2 compact wheelers that are super fun and practical to drive and flow well in traffic, rather than being stuck in traffic in 8AM behind Mrs Pace Axiaq Doublett that decided to purchase an SUV the Size of a Tiger Tank to escort her kid at pre-school.
