Ronda



Ronda, one of Andalusia’s most spectacular “white villages” combines history and tradition to create a magical setting. The gaping El Tajo gorge slices through the town spanned by the 130 metre high Puente Nuevo and the oldest bullring in Spain echoes of bullfights through the ages. Surrounding the ancient town are the rolling hills and mountain tops of the Sierranía de Ronda and Grazalema National Park, a haven for those seeking the real Andalusian countryside.
