The image displays a large, decorated Christmas tree dominating the left foreground of St. George's Square (Pjazza San Ġorġ) in Valletta, Malta, viewed under a clear, cloudless blue sky. The Christmas tree is tall and conical, adorned with red bows, gold ribbons, red and gold baubles, and circular ornaments featuring various marine life motifs such as crabs and fish. A star tops the tree, and "Merry Christmas" text is visible on some decorations. At the tree's base, large white figures resembling nutcrackers or Santa Clauses are visible, alongside multiple individuals wearing red Santa hats. To the right of the tree, multi-story buildings constructed of light-colored limestone line what appears to be Republic Street (Triq ir-Repubblika), leading away from the square. These buildings exhibit traditional Maltese architectural features, including ornate facades, balustrades, and several enclosed wooden balconies (gallariji), predominantly painted green. Further down the street, classical columns, part of a historical structure (likely the former Royal Opera House ruins or Auberge de Provence), are visible, along with a statue and a distant Maltese flag. A tall white flagpole stands prominent in the midground. The far right features a segment of a large, pale, blocky structure, possibly the Parliament House. Numerous people are observed populating the pedestrianized street and the base of the Christmas tree, indicating a bustling public area. Individuals are walking and congregating, suggesting a lively urban environment during a festive period.
