Ronda spans a dramatic gorge with the Puente Nuevo and terraced white townscapes. Stone arches, buttresses, and a hidden chamber above the river face thermal cycling and seismicity. Overlooks and trails distribute visitors, while conservation stabilizes cliff edges, masonry joints, and historic railings.
Completed in 1793, the Puente Nuevo links the old Moorish quarter with newer districts across El Tajo’s vertical chasm.
Masonry arches and abutments are inspected for movement; drainage and vegetation control protect cliff faces. Viewpoints require safety barriers.
Walk multiple viewpoints (above, below, and across the bridge); sunset silhouettes the arches; explore Arab baths and bullring heritage.
