Travel Fantasy: Spanish Cliffside Town

Friday, September 21, 2012

Crikey, how would you fancy a view like that? Ronda is a little mountain town in Malaga, Spain situated just above the canyon, on the edge of those cliffs. I read that despite the very unusual location, it's one of the most romantic little spots, where you can take strolls down the cobblestone alleys or cross the mesmerizing bridge to the other side of the town. Locals also say that due to the scenery and the quiet vibe of the place it’s the best spot to live in. Ha! I think it would make a great vacation spot. What do you think? Have you been there before? xo

P.S: Plus this spot and this dreamy place.
P.P.S: Friday gems are coming up!

the cape on the corner said...: this is so bizarre-two posts about ronda from blogs i read in the last two days. i WISH i saw this view when i was there, but i guess being in the town means you don't get this cliff view? ronda, and some of the other "white towns" like frigiliana were my favorite spots on our southern spain vacation last year.; September 21, 2012 at 5:57 PM

Chapstick Fanatic said...: this is amazing - although, i think i would be too much of a wimp to go near the edge.

We stayed at the hotel at the end of the bridge(right side when you look at the picture) can't remember the name but it was on the edge of the steep cliffs. Sunsets from the city lookout park was phenominal! Very picturesque! It is the home of the oldest bullfighting ring in Spain with a great museum.; January 15, 2015 at 12:36 AM
