Bilbao

Spain

A 4-day trip to Bilbao

Bilbao is the Basque industrial city reborn by a Guggenheim — old and new in one rebuilt river town.

Bilbao is the post-industrial Basque city reinvented by the Guggenheim — Gehry's titanium museum on the river, an old town of pintxos, and a regenerated waterfront. It's grittier and grander than San Sebastián; do both. Eat pintxos, see the Guggenheim, and ride the metro to the coast.
