Plaza de Toros de Ronda, Neoclassical bullring in Ronda, Spain.
The stone-built circular arena measures 66 meters in diameter and features a two-tiered seating arrangement surrounding the sand-covered central ring.
Architect Martin de Aldehuela designed this bullfighting venue, which opened its doors on May 19, 1784, becoming the first permanent stone bullring in Spain.
The annual Goyesca bullfight attracts spectators dressed in 18th-century costumes, maintaining traditions from the era of painter Francisco de Goya.
The site includes an equestrian school, a museum displaying bullfighting memorabilia, and a specialized library containing extensive documentation about tauromachy.
The arena's stone archways underwent extensive restoration to prevent moisture damage, while maintaining the original architectural elements from the 18th century.
