About Puente Nuevo

Puente Nuevo is a landmark. Location: Ronda, Malaga.

From Wikipedia

The Puente Nuevo (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈpwente ˈnweβo], "New Bridge"), completed in 1793, is the newest and largest of three bridges that span the 120-metre-deep (390 ft) chasm, the El Tajo Gorge, that carries the Guadalevín River and divides the city of Ronda, in southern Spain. The architect was José Martin de Aldehuela and the chief builder was Juan Antonio Díaz Machuca. The construction of the newest bridge (the one standing as of 2024) was started in 1759 and took 34 years.
