Floriana's seven gardens in for themed revamp
THE government has launched
a tender for professional servic-
es to transform seven gardens
and green spaces in Floriana into
themed gardens.
Project milestones outlined in
the tender include restoration
works at Saint Philip Lower Gar-
den and its Butterfly House and
railway tunnel, the development
of a visitor interpretation centre
for the Malta Botanic Garden, and
restoration works at the Sa Mai-
son and Milorda Gardens.
This network of botanic gardens
will be recognised as the national
botanical garden of the Maltese
islands, focusing on conserving
rare, endangered, sub-endemic,
and endemic species. The project
aims to encourage the local com-
munity to engage with and protect
the region's flora while providing
an attractive space for relaxation
and learning.
The gardens will also highlight
the area's rich cultural and his-
torical heritage and serve as a key
tourist attraction within the Val-
letta and Floriana conurbation.
The contractor will also be re-
sponsible for obtaining the neces-
sary permits from authorities such
as the Planning Authority, the
Superintendence of Cultural Her-
itage, and the Building and Con-
struction Authority. High-quality
artistic impressions, including
three-dimensional models of the
gardens, will be required for pub-
licity and media purposes.
