Does Bilbao have any other assets? Yes, the city offers some of the most delicious and varied gastronomies in Spain!<\/p>\n<p>One thing you need to experience while in Bilbao, is hearing the locals talking about \u201cel Grand Bilbao\u201d in an impressively proud manner: the bilba\u00ednos love their city, and like to shout about it! <\/p>\n<p>Here is a selection of things you are forbidden to miss when in Bilbao:<\/p>\n<p>You will be able to see most of the audacious architectures shown in the video by taking the original metro or other public transports: university, health public service, hotels, airport, and library\u2026all of these buildings look like no others! The video clearly indicates that Bilbao is not about to be refrained from growing: the Zorrozaurre is an artificial peninsula, formed in the 1950s, and where the city still has ambitious projects, and is looking forward its future!<\/p>\n<p>Walking on the cobbled streets around the Old Town will enable you to visit most of the city\u2019s attractions for free! Among these sights, pay attention to the Teatro Arriaga, a sophisticated theatre that hosts numerous opera-related events, together with the gothic Catedral de Santiago. Make sure you also stroll around the Mercado de la Ribera, the city\u2019s animated market place, built in an Art Nouveau style.<\/p>\n<p>Hop on a bus\/metro from Larrabesterra or Plentzia towards the city\u2019s nearby beaches, to admire their natural beauty, and soak up the sweet Basque sun.<\/p>\n<p>One of the locals\u2019 favourite leisure times is to have a walk along the Rio Nervion, where you will be able to climb on the wonderful Puente Zubizuri, as shown on the video, the bridge binds the Old Town west side of the river to the brand new avant-garde east side.<\/p>\n<p>Then it would be time to discover the fantastic Museo Guggenheim, which has clearly become the city\u2019s icon. Its outside innovative design is as worth seeing as the masterpieces it contains inside.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, if you wish to reconcile with authenticity, then getting to know a bit more about the proud Basque culture, language and traditions will be possible when having a look at the Euskal Museoa.<\/p>\n<p>Come and enjoy a unique city, where people speak a very clear and easy-to-understand accent, on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.applelanguages.com\/en\/learn\/spanish\/spain\/bilbao.php\">Spanish course in Bilbao<\/a> with Apple Language Courses!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you wish to experience one of Europe\u2019s most cutting-edge cities, visiting Bilbao seems to be a must do!
