This photograph showcases Xlendi bay during an era when buildings were primarily situated on the lower cliffs, preserving much of the area’s natural charm. At that time, the main road passed directly in front of the bay. In later years, two houses were demolished to allow the road to connect to what became known as Pjazza Anfori, now serving as a parking area. This image captures the simplicity and tranquillity of Xlendi bay before modern developments reshaped its landscape, offering a nostalgic glimpse into its serene past.
