A day trip from Seville to Ronda brings you to a dramatic clifftop town that captivated Hemingway and Orson Welles. Marvel at the spectacular New Bridge spanning a 100-meter ravine, discover Spain's oldest bullring, and explore the magnificent Mondragon Palace with its rich history from Moorish kings to Catholic monarchs. When you're ready to descend back to Seville, your drive will meet back up with you for the return trip.
After you ascend Ronda by car, you'll be free to explore this cliff-top city and its breathtaking gorge while your driver waits nearby for the return to Seville.
Settled in the 9th century BC, Ronda was officially named a city under the reign of Julius Caesar. The scenic setting, and many landmarks made the town popular with the Romantics, attracting the likes of Alexandre Dumas, Ernest Hemingway, and Orson Welles. The 18th century ‘New Bridge’ straddles a 100 meter ravine, and offers spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. In the city proper, you can find one of the country’s oldest bull-fighting rings. The Mondragon palace, originally built in 1314 by the Moorish King Abomelik, was later used as the primary residence for Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand. Inside you'll find a fascinating museum devoted to Ronda’s rich history, with exhibits including Roman and Moorish tombs. For a unique view of the city, the stunning Cuenca Gardens follow a series of terraces on the ledges of the Tajo river.
