Attard is the largest of the Three Villages (with Balzan and Lija) and home to the Prime Minister's residence at San Anton Palace and the Maltese Olympic Stadium at Ta' Qali. Its mature gardens, low-rise streets, and 17th century palazzo stock have made it one of Malta's most prestigious inland addresses.
