Our review<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the Santiponce region, north of Sevilla, you\u2019ll find the ruins of a Roman city built around 206 B.C.: It\u00e1lica. We were amazed by the sheer size of this complex, which included an amphitheater that could seat 25,000 spectators. This testifies to the city&#8217;s economic and political importance during the High Roman Empire. In fact, it\u2019s the birthplace of Emperors Trajan and Hadrian!  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u00e1lica is also famous for its splendid mosaics. And we certainly agree. We were astounded by their excellent state of preservation. The mosaic of Bacchus and Ariadne particularly impressed us with the finesse of the figures&#8217; execution.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Travel\/Andalucia\/16a-Santiponce-Italica\/i-rQh6mH2\/2\/FNKbD2qMG2ssJrBNSsw8nfWhXmbG3T6Xm74h85rZW\/L\/Santiponce_Italica_Andalucia_Spain-8550-L.jpg\" alt=\"mosaic at Italica\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful tips<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A 15- to 20-minute drive from <a href=\"https:\/\/andalucialovers.com\/en\/best-things-to-do-sevilla-visit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sevilla<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Allow 1 to 2 hours for the tour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A fairly easy site to visit.

Dating from the 13th century, they are among the best preserved in Spain, with their vaulted rooms, intimate alcoves and brick columns. Body cleansing at the baths was a prerequisite for entry into the adjacent mosque, and we particularly enjoyed the video on how the baths worked in the past.<br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/andalucialovers.com\/en\/arab-baths-ronda-visit-photos\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"1666\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more in our dedicated article.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Travel\/Andalucia\/14d-Ronda-arab-baths\/i-4vf9mZk\/2\/CfS9jX3X82QBhHvRQkGDnsgndV9nQHWMFW5m85jft\/L\/Arab_Baths_Ronda_Andalucia_Spain-7775-L.jpg\" alt=\"View of the Arab Baths in Ronda\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful tips<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In the city of Ronda<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Allow 45 minutes to 1 hour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some stairs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adult price: \u20ac4.50  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hours: Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. (until 3 p.m. only on Saturdays and Sundays)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(See any updates on the website <a href=\"https:\/\/turismoderonda.es\/en\/ronda\/que_ver\/arquitectura_plazas_monumentos\/banos_arabes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container box gb-block-container\" style=\"background-color:#f6dfe6;margin-top:8%;margin-bottom:8%\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns inverse is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column texte_planif is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:58%\">\n<h5 class=\"titre_box\" style=\"padding-top:10px\">FUN in Andalucia: <span class=\"titre_box_manuscrit\">activities<\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/seville-l48\/seville-3-heures-de-cours-de-cuisine-espagnole-avec-diner-t69843\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=andalucia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Cooking course<\/a> in Sevilla<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/benahavis-l101793\/benahavis-randonnee-et-canyoning-dans-la-campagne-de-marbella-t464993\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=andalucia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Canyoning<\/a> from the Costa del Sol<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/el-chorro-l143817\/caminito-del-rey-visite-guidee-avec-guides-officiels-et-entree-t569659\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=andalucia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Guided Hike on the Caminito del Rey<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column ville-radius is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:42%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large img-portrait\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Andalucia-Lovers\/Caminito-del-Rey\/i-zbsmQsd\/0\/Kv5dSfwcXjdLF29KTb6kZHtFzHZ78gC39QrtHPTb6\/S\/caminitodelrey-bridge-S.jpg\" alt=\"Caminito del Rey\" title=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.
