✨🇪🇸A Must-See Sight in Ronda,Spain🇪🇸✨

🇪🇸Radiant Ronda🇪🇸 The massive bullring in Ronda is so stunning and so beautiful❤️ ✨The Plaza de Toros de Ronda is famous for being the oldest bullring in Spain. Construction was originally finished in 1784 but because of an inaugural bullfighting event that year resulted in a partial damage, it closed for repairs until it was finally completed in 1785. It has a Royal Box reserved for the Spanish Royal Family to watch the bullfighting. ✨By virtue of its architecture, character and beauty, it is recognized as one of the finest bullrings in existence. ✨Built in monumental style from sandstone, its noble design, featuring a double gallery of arcades and no uncovered seating, is more reminiscent of a cloister than a bullring, bearing similarities to the circular patio of the famous Palacio de Carlos V at the Alhambra in Granada. The arena itself, which is 66 metres in diameter, is surrounded by a passage formed by two stone rings. The two stories of seating consist of five rows of terracing and 136 columns forming 68 Tuscan column arches, with the exception of the Royal Box, which features fluted columns, floral decorative motifs on its pendentives and a frieze adorned with rosettes. The main box is situated above the bullpen, which stood in line with the main faèade until this was moved to Calle San Carlos, now Virgen de la Paz. 💕This definitely is a sight to behold and see for yourself A must visit when in Spain-go to Ronda✨ #summerdestinations #freehotelstay #familytrip #localguides #spaintrip #historicallandmarks #mytravelhacks #passionpassport #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #spain #foodie #asiatrip #mustdo #food #trip
