It is no secret that Malta has changed drastically in the past century. However, an even more astounding transformation can be observed in the Sliema and St Julian's area in the last 30 years.

In a series of photos taken comparing the two areas in 1992 to their modern counterpart, the noticeable change will either leave your jaw hanging, kickstart the nostalgia, or both!

The photos were taken by British holidaymaker Michelle Thompson who wrote: "St Julian's looks a lot different than it was in 1992...so built up now and full of pubs and clubs."
