~MALTA~ HAZ- ZEBBUG streets and city entrance

Żebbuġ also known by its title Città Rohan, is a city in the Southern Region of Malta. It is one of the oldest towns in the islands. The name of the town literally means "olives" in Maltese; it derives from the large olive groves that stood in and around the current location of the church and the centre of the town. The town was bestowed with the title of Città Rohan by Emmanuel de Rohan-Polduc, the Grand Master of the Order of St. John on 21 June 1777. As was the custom in such events, the people of Ħaż-Żebbuġ built an archway known as the De Rohan Arch at the entrance to their hometown by way of marking the incipiency of its status as a city. The gateway, also known by the locals as Il-Bieb il-Ġdid (Maltese for The New Gateway) still stands today. Enjoy :)

Thank our government and its carelessness towards guarding our nature for that tree there in the roundabout to the entrance has now died compltetely. After possibly hundreds of years of growth, the view is now tainted with mourn and sorrow of what was once present a great tree

Agree, that roundabout was very neat now it's just soil.
