2. ROMAN BRIDGE

Puente Romano de Cordoba is the famous Roman Bridge. 

A wonderful sight to visit especially at dusk, as the last rays of the sun linger and make the stone surfaces glow a deep golden red.

This bridge was first built in the 1st century A.D. and has been rebuilt many times since. Its present form dates mainly from the Medieval period, with the latest changes being made in 1876.
