Bilbao: the city and the people
Bilbao is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in all of Spain. As well as the well
•known Guggeinheim Museum, our city boasts great architecture with a mix of old and modern buildings. Nature is another noteworthy aspect; you only have to look around, to see that we have mountains, the estuary and the sea within a stone´s throw.
One of Bilbao´s characteristics is its rich gastronomy. Make sure you try the region´s specialities. Fish, seafood, cod in a pil
•pil sauce (cod in a garlic and pepper sauce) and bonito ( a medium
•sized fish) are some of the local specialities as well as the famous ´Pintxos´, a variety of tapas, which you can find on the counters of many bars. You can accompany all of this with a glass of wine produced in the region, ´txakoli´, or a Rioja.
