Ġnien is-Sultan, Public park in Valletta, Malta.
The garden extends across multiple levels near the Grand Harbour, containing Mediterranean plants, trees, and ornate stone fountains throughout its grounds.
The park originated in the 17th century under Grand Master Giovanni Paolo Lascaris, who established it as a summer residence with Baroque design elements.
The garden's name translates to King's Garden in Maltese, reflecting the historical connection to the Grand Masters who governed Malta from Valletta.
The park provides direct access to several walking paths connecting different sections of Valletta, with multiple entrances from the surrounding streets.
A preserved fountain from the original garden now stands in Argotti Gardens, featuring a concave basin supported by Tuscan pillars.
