Victoria Gate is a city gate in Valletta, Malta. It was built by the British in 1885, and was named (not surprisingly) after Queen Victoria. The gate is the main entrance into the city from the Grand Harbour area, which was once the busiest part of the city. This gate is built on the site of the 16th-century Del Monte Gate, which was becoming too small for the amount of traffic.
