Ronda

 

There are cities that appear in the eyes of the traveler as something unreal. We rub our eyes and emerge from cliffs and gorges, intimate and secluded, to give us good morning and make us dream of his past bullfighters and bandits. This is Round. Magical, fascinating, shoulder and bolero.

Its streets keep silent many stories of stolen affair, romantic legends dressed for battle in their mountainous, home to many famous bandits. Spot the Tajo de Ronda us back to those times of violence but also of loyalty, of betrayal but also of forbidden love. And ran its many pubs and bars we can even imagine José María "El Tempranillo" or Juan José Mingolla "long steps", famous outlaws, chatting, laughing, good jug of wine and a loaf of bread in her hands, cut with their large knives.

Romantic and tragic times that have managed to leave us a no less romantic city.

Ronda is the head of a region rich in monuments and Nature. The Guadalevin through the city to divide it in two and carving on it for centuries, which today is its most famous and beautiful appearance: the famous Tajo de Ronda, a wildlife conservation work, a deep gash cut into the mountain, more than hundred meters deep, is now the hallmark of this mountain town.

To each side are two different cities. On the one hand the new, happy and set their city outstanding monumental bullring that has been so historical runs, and that has made Ronda bullfighting city.

And on the other side, the old, nostalgic, beautiful, quiet, full of palaces and churches, cozy places, like the Duchess of Parcent, with the church of Santa María de la Encarnación and the City Council.

In Ronda, white and bright, you can see its Arab art in its minarets or towers at Casa Moro king, among other palaces, but also Baroque, Gothic and Renaissance riches, as the door of Carlos V, located in the wall ...
