Description

Old Houses of Ronda by Jenny Rainbow.

Ronda is an unique Spanish town with authentic architecture and special location on the rocks, well know by the world travelers.

Ronda is one of those cities which appears to be located somewhere between reality and legend. Previously isolated due to its geographic reality, city of bullfighters and outlaws, destination of those fascinated by them, Ronda is now a city where you can enjoy a broad repertoire of monuments.
Situated in the most northwestern part of the province of Malaga , in Ronda is a city located on a ravine 120 metres deep which is considered as one of the oldest cities in Europe on account of its history. The small River Guadalevin traverse it, dividing the city in two. Its source caused the creation of the Tajo of a height of a hundred meters which nowadays is one of the marks of the city's identity.

Ronda is already well known internationally for iconic buildings such as the Puente Nuevo, Plaza de Toros, the Arab Baths, and in the vicinity for the cave paintings at Pileta, the Roman ruined city of Acinipo, and of course the variety of pristine nature in the district. Securing UNESCO World Heritage listing would add to the prestige these sites have.

The city of Ronda has formally requested the support of Spain’s king Don Juan Carlos as efforts get underway to have Ronda declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
