Puente Viejo and Casa del Rey Moro. Interestingly, both these landmarks have deceptive names. Puente Viejo (Old Bridge) was built in 1616 upon the ruins of an earlier Arab bridge, and thus is certainly older than the 18th-century Puente Nuevo (New Bridge). However, if you continue a bit further downhill you'll reach an even older bridge that does date from the Arab period. Oddly enough, this bridge is sometimes called Puente Romano, even though it was built by the Moors. Casa del Rey Moro translates as "House of the Moorish King", but the building that stands today was built in the 18th century, long after the Moors were driven out. However, it's still notable for two features: the hanging gardens and water mine. The hanging gardens were built along the gorge walls in 1912 by famed French landscape designer Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier. If they are open, stop by and enjoy the peaceful views of the gorge. The water mine is a vertical shaft carved into solid rock with stairs leading all the way down to the river, some 60m below

These 11th-century Arab baths are some of the best preserved in Europe. They are situated outside the city walls near the oldest bridge, as it was a Muslin custom back then to purified one's self before entering the city. You can visit the chambers - hot, mild, cold - and watch a short video detailing how they were stream fed and temperature-controlled.
