About Bilbao

Bilbao, a city in northern Spain, is known for its unique blend of modern and traditional elements. One of the most notable attractions is the Guggenheim Museum, an architectural marvel that showcases contemporary art. Its exterior, designed by Frank Gehry, is as impressive as the artworks housed inside.

In the heart of the city, you can explore the Casco Viejo, Bilbao's old town, characterized by its narrow streets, quaint shops, and local eateries. This area offers a glimpse into the city’s history and culture, making it a pleasant place to stroll and enjoy local cuisine. Sampling pintxos, the Basque version of tapas, is a must, as numerous bars and restaurants serve these small dishes.

Another significant site is the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum, which features an extensive collection that spans from the Middle Ages to contemporary works. This museum provides insight into both local and international art, making it an enriching experience for visitors.

The Ría de Bilbao, the estuary that runs through the city, is perfect for leisurely walks. The scenic riverside paths provide a different perspective of the city’s architecture, both modern and historic. The Zubizuri Bridge, designed by Santiago Calatrava, offers a striking view and is a popular spot for photographs.

For those interested in local culture, the Bilbao Cathedral, also known as Santiago Cathedral, is worth a visit. Its Gothic architecture and historical significance reflect the city’s heritage. Additionally, you can enjoy the vibrant atmosphere at Mercado de la Ribera, one of the largest covered markets in Europe, where you can experience local products and cuisine.

Finally, if you have time, consider taking a short trip to the nearby Basque countryside or coastal towns like Getxo, which offer stunning landscapes and opportunities for outdoor activities. Overall, Bilbao presents a rich tapestry of art, history, and gastronomy for visitors to explore.
