This ancient Roman bridge over the river Guadiamar is now a bridge over dry land. The river has meandered 200 yards to the west. It looks lovely. But this is only a pond. In summer the river is dry. It is now crossed by a rather less beautiful modern bridge. As so often in Andalucia, the Roman bridge is also overshadowed by a concrete government visitor centre. When I visited in midsummer there were cars parked outside, and presumably staff inside collecting their salaries, but the centre was closed. No-one seemed too bothered that people had been taxed to pour concrete next to a beautiful river and to divert adults into unproductive jobs. I cheered myself up with the thought that with the accession of the new Eastern European states, the EU will divert some of these harmful make work projects away from Spain. |
