Malta - Three Villages

Beyond Birkirkara's indefinable limits are the Siamese triplet villages of Attard, Balzan and Lija, known collectively as the Three Villages. During the last 300 to 400 years these small settlements gathered around village churches and fertile groves have grown into solid and wealthy towns.

The Maltese president, the American, German and EU ambassadors and the incumbent Grand Master all live within the Three Villages.
