This bridge is on the edge of the village of Biniaraix near to the much larger town of Soller.
The Spanish word for river, Torrent is very appropriate, but you wouldn't believe it from looking at my pictures. There is no river visible only a deep, dry riverbed.
This is what the river looks like in the summer. But come winter and spring, the river is fed from the surrounding mountains, and turns into a true torrent.
