Sliema

Sliema is a coastal town located on the northeast of Malta.  In the last decade Sliema has seen a radical transformation.  Sliema used to home elegant villas, town houses and many Victorian buildings that were built by the British along the promenade overlook the rocky coastline.  Sliema became the first tourist resort in Malta and this brought with it the complete change of landscapes.  Nowadays, very few of those Victorian buildings and town houses remain standing, as now the majority of Sliema is apartments.  Sliema has developed more into a commercial center with many coffee shops, restaurants and shopping malls.  The promenade offers long walks or runs and spectacular open sea views.

Here are some kindergartens located in the area:
