City in the Spanish province of Málaga
About Ronda
Ronda was first settled by the early Celts, and later inhabited by Phoenicians, Greeks, and Romans. The Moors left an indelible imprint in the city, which only fell to the Christian reconquista in 1485. In more modern times, the town has hosted a number of well-known writers, including Ernest Hemingway, Orson Welles, James Joyce, and the German poet Rainer Maria Rilke. Ronda is divided into three neighbourhoods: the more modernMercadillo, with the bus and train stations and other services;La Ciudad, the old Moorish quarter which has been largely preserved; and theBarrio de San Francisco. The town makes a good base for outdoor pursuits, including hiking, canoeing and river kayaking, and mountain biking.
