Discover the Hidden Gem! Spain's Sky City?!

Ronda Town, located in the province of Málaga in Andalusia, southern Spain, is a historic town with a history dating back over three thousand years to the Roman Empire. - 🌿Legend has it that the earliest travelers discovered this place perched on a 750-meter cliff. Due to its strategic location, abundant rivers, and rich food resources, they settled here and built a house. Over time, theaters, churches, and streets spread across the hillside, eventually forming this prosperous town. Ronda is not only known for its long history but also for its unique geographical location and architectural style, earning it the nickname "Sky City." - 【Puente Nuevo Bridge】is the iconic landmark of Ronda Town and one of Spain's most famous attractions. 🔹Built over 270 years ago, this bridge spans between two cliffs, connecting the new and old towns of Ronda. The bridge is paved with stone slabs, which have turned dark and shiny like black onyx over the years. Standing on the bridge, you can feel the breathtaking beauty and take in the panoramic view of the Ronda mountains. In the middle of the bridge, there is a small room that was once used as a prison, adding a touch of mystery to this ancient bridge. 🔸Activities: Visitors can walk down the steps on one side of the bridge into the gorge to admire the structure from a different angle. The gorge also houses the Puente Nuevo Interactive Media Center, where visitors can learn more about the history and stories of this ancient bridge through exhibits and video materials. - 【Strolling the Old Town✨】 Ronda's old town retains many ancient buildings and streets. Walking through it, you can feel the rich historical atmosphere. The white houses, narrow streets, and cobblestone roads make you feel like you've traveled back in time. Here, you can stop at a café or restaurant to enjoy authentic Spanish cuisine while taking in the surrounding scenery. 【Visiting the Bullring✨】 As the birthplace of Spanish bullfighting, the Ronda Bullring (Plaza de Toros de Ronda) is a must-visit. Built in 1785, this bullring has witnessed the glorious history of Spanish bullfighting culture. Although modern bullfighting culture is controversial, visiting the bullring still allows you to learn about the origins and development of this traditional activity. 【Watching the Sunset✨】 Ronda's sunset is a must-see. Standing on the Puente Nuevo Bridge or nearby viewing platforms, you can see the golden light of the setting sun cast on the cliffs and white houses, making the whole town glow with a golden hue. Capture this unforgettable moment with your camera. 【Xiaoman's Portugal & Spain Route✨】 Xiaoman has a small group tour departing on September 25, 2024, looking forward to you joining us to explore the "Sky City" of Ronda Town!
