Transporting us back in time, a memorable throwback photo surfaced on social media on the page ‘Iż-Żurrieq u l-madwar Żurrieq and its surroundings’, offering a mesmerising glimpse into the past. The image showcases the scenic beauty of Wied iż-Żurrieq, capturing its natural charm in the early years of the last century.

Wied iż-Żurrieq, a picturesque valley on the island of Malta, has always held a special place in the hearts of both locals and visitors. This vintage photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia, highlighting the timeless allure of this intact wonder.

This black-and-white snapshot reveals a simpler era, where the landscape was unspoiled, and life moved at a different pace. It's a reminder of how history and time have shaped the places we hold dear.

This same Facebook page is renowned for showcasing Żurrieq in all of its golden glory, past and present. A while back, the page posted an old photo showcasing fishermen at Wied iż-Żurrieq, dating back to World War II.

These throwback photos from the past spark a desire to preserve the beauty of such places for future generations, ensuring they too can cherish the natural wonders, like Wied iż-Żurrieq, that have enchanted us throughout the years.
