Prepare to take a journey back in time and head down to Spianada. Hail a horse-drawn carriage and tell its driver to take you to Mon Repos. On the island’s best plot of land, the very same where King George spent his summer holidays, is a garden of innumerable flowers and tall trees. In the middle of this island paradise is the royal palace, now the Museum of Paleopolis. Once upon a time, an infant’s cry broke this eden’s silence, announcing the birth of Prince Phillip, the Duke of Edinburgh – born in the palace a hundred year's ago. Explore its ground floor with unique works of art. Make your way to the grande patio and walk barefoot on the mosaic floors. Climb the staircase artfully – crafted in wood to the upper floor exhibition. Today, you are royalty; make yourself at home!
