The traditional Maltese balcony is one of the first things most visitors notice in Malta. They dominate the streets with bright and vivid colours and in Valletta, you can find the most colourful collection of traditional balconies that date back centuries. The spread of Baroque style architecture of the 17th century is one of the main driving forces in the design of these structures and in 18th century, almost every house in Malta had a balcony.
