España Experience: Ronda, part 1

Our next short day trip was to the town of Ronda. Each little town and plaza was decorated for Christmas. It was fun to see the decorations as we came into the town's streets. The roads were so narrow and the parking so tight!!! I was so glad my name was not on the car insurance policy! CC, take the wheel!





Our "narrow roads and stressful parking" was quickly rewarded once we got out of the car and began hiking through the town. Ronda is a city that dates back to Moorish times.


There were some ruins of an "old bridge" but the real bridge to see, CC had read, was the "new bridge" and the "new town," meaning built in the 1400's! Here is the old city.
 
Built as a mountaintop city, there was just beauty in every direction.



And then we came into the "new town" and saw the "new bridge." It was spectacular!
