. The town stops dramatically at the edge of tall, sheer cliffs and you wonder exactly how you'll be able to drive up to it.
Actually, it was pretty easy - so much for first impressions.
We parked the car very close to the centre of town and strolled off to see the sights.
Ronda consists of two very distinct quarters (shouldn't that really be halves?) - the old and the new. Don't get carried away now, the 'new' quarter is mainly 18th century so 'new' is a relative term.
The two areas are divided very neatly by a gaping chasm called El Tajo through which the River Guadalevín flows. This, and the 'new' bridge that crosses the gorge is probably one of the most photographed sites in this part of the world. The views down into the gorge are breathtaking and with the buildings clinging precariously on the knife-edge of cliff, it's pretty ...

We needed an Easter break so we went to the Andalusian Mountains of Spain. We stayed in accommodation not far away from Ronda. I was very impressed with this town so will tell you about my visit here

~~RONDA~~
ANDALUSIA
SPAIN
We have spent several winters in Benalmadena Costa in Andalusia at one of our Holiday Club resorts.
One thing that we do enjoy (well after the first time after the results of Mr Oldchem?s first driving in Spain, but that?s another story) is hiring a car and visiting places in the Andalusian Mountains.
One of the most memorable places that we have visited is the beautiful town of Ronda, which is part of the province of Malaga.
Ronda is situated 60km up a winding mountain road in the mountain range Serranía deRonda. It stands at an altitude of 739 m and has approximately 35,000 inhabitants. The average year round temperature is 15C and it has around 2700 hours of sunshine per year.
Ronda is a town that is not that well known on the typical Spanish tourist list of places ...
