Ronda’s most striking feature is the Puente Nuevo, which spans a gorge over 300 feet deep. Can you guess when the "new bridge" was built? 1793. That should give visitors an idea of how unchanged Ronda has been over the years. It’s also known as the birthplace of modern bullfighting. The town’s bullfighting ring is only used once a year, at the Feria Goyesca, but it’s also a museum where you can learn about the history of this traditional (yet controversial) sport.

Super view of the new bridge from both above and below the bridge. Walk down the pathway which takes you down to the base.

While I was able to enjoy views of the Tajo Gorge from various areas in Ronda, the Mirador de los Viajeros Romanticos provided a unique vantage point during my exploration of Ronda. The views from this area are more expansive and provide great views of several sites including not only the gorge, but the adjacent lands, old Moorish walls and the snow mountains. During my visit to this area, I observed a brave soul paragliding way above the gorge! To really appreciate Ronda’s gorge, this area is place visitors must stop by.

It is located right next to the bridge and from here there is a great view of the steep canyon of the river. It is free to visit, and you can see a large part of the new city.
