Itinerary description
Fuimos con el Grupo de Kath en el autobús a Guaro, y después del café subimos a la salida del pueblo camino a Monda. Es un camino de monte, no asfaltado pero ancho y cómodo para andar. Las vistas no son espectaculares, y no hay mucho para ver. Llegamos a Monda en dos horas y media, que nos ha dado tiempo para tomar un ten-te-en-pie, y luego visitar los monumentos del pueblo. Hay cuatro fuentes, las de la Jaula, la Villa, la Mea Mea, y la Esquina. En el Mundo islámico el agua tenía una importancia, para beber, regar, lavarse y refrescarse. También se puede visitar el Camino Romano. y las Eras (donde trillaban), el Calvario, los tres en las afueras, la Iglesia de Santiago Apóstol, Cruz del Carnero, y la Casa Museo Marigloria. Es un Pueblo que vale visitar, pero da la impresión que está sufriendo mucho la recesión actual.
We went with Kath´s group in the bus to Guaro, and after a coffee we walked up the town to join the route to Monda. It is a Mountain road, not surfaced, but wide and easy for walking. The views are not spectacular, and there is not a lot to see on the way. We arrived at Monda in two and a half hours, and we had time for a snack, before visiting the town´s monuments. There are four fountains, Jaula, Villa, Mea Mea, and Esquina. In the Islamic days water had a significant place in everyday life, for drinking, washing, watering the crops and keeping cool. We also visited the Roman Road, the Eras (threshing grounds), and the Calvary, all three in the outskirts of the town, and the Church of Santiago Apostle, the Cross of Carnero, and the Museum House of Marigloria. The town is worth a visit, but it gives the impression of suffering badly the present recession.
