Alameda del Tajo, Urban garden in Ronda, Spain.
Description
The Alameda del Tajo is an urban garden in the center of Ronda with stone pathways, native trees, and flower beds. It stretches along the hillside and offers multiple entrances with clear connections to nearby landmarks.
History
The garden was established in the 18th century when Ronda underwent major urban development under aristocratic leadership. This space was part of the city's transformation during that period.
Culture
Locals gather here on benches and under trees to spend afternoons together, especially during town festivals and celebrations. The space feels like a living room where people come to meet neighbors and enjoy public life.
Practical
The gardens are open from sunrise to sunset with multiple entrances from different streets. Wear comfortable walking shoes as the terrain is hilly and can be slippery when wet.

The garden has viewing platforms that overlook El Tajo gorge with vertical rock walls dropping more than a hundred meters below. From these balconies you can see the Guadalevín River in the distance far beneath.
