Hi, I’m hoping you can help. I was trying to find out where this picture of my grandad was taken. We think it was taken during WW2. Somebody has suggested it could be San Antonio gardens? I tried to match it up with Google street view but I couldn’t get an exact match. Was it taken in Sam Anton gardens? Thanks in advance.

That’s the upper barrakka garden in Valletta. The square monument behind him is the John Bathurst Thomson memorial.
You can see the same view in this 360 shot https://www.google.com/maps/@35.89487,14.512021,3a,75.0y,59.979206h,80.42087t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sAF1QipNjTAk601X71VnXRXDcrbUGNd57K3hbvA9Pkh_7!2e10?g_st=ac but the monument is now mostly obscured by trees.
