Ronda – Hidden Mountain top town inside the costa del sol

Ronda is a town in the costa del sol famous for its bridge connecting the two halfs of the town and offering amazing views of the surrounding landscapes from many parts of the town.

The town itself is divided into three clearly distinct areas: the city, or old Arab Medina, which is the most important from the historical point of view; the neighbourhood of San Francisco, separated by city walls, and the Mercadillo neighbourhood, which is on the other side of the Guadalevín river.

The surrounding landscapes around Ronda are a array of green fields and mountain peaks encircling them in all directions.
