Although it is not a tourist center, this city is rapidly working at re-inventing itself as one and warrants at least a day’s visit to see its attractions. |

| The new futuristic-looking Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, devoted to modern art,
is the cornerstone of a major redevelopment project of the city’s waterfront
undertaken by the Basque administration. This amazing building was designed
by Frank Gehry, an architect from Los Angeles, CA and one of the best
contemporary architects working on this planet today. It is almost
indescribable and consists of swirls clad in titanium and great panels of
glass supported by steel girders and looking like an erector set for adults
gone mad. The major part of the museum is covered on the exterior by
titanium sheets of 2 x 3 feet and looking somewhat like scales on a fish.
Much of the interior is in stone tiles of the same size and as most of the
walls are curved all these tiles were laid out and cut by computer and only
fit in one space. Now that's a clever way to drive up the job cost. A
beautiful, beautiful project and the reason many come to Bilbao. The
visitors may also enjoy seeing the Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology
(Roman prehistoric and Iberian exhibits), the Bellas Artes Museum and the
Museum of sea. Other places of interest in the city are the 14th-century
Gothic Church of Santiago, the Old City(Casco Viejo) and Ensanche Park.
Another new architectual marvel is Bilbao's Metro (subway) designed by
Norman Foster. A space age mode of rapid transit straight out of a high teck
science fiction vision. A quick bus or train excursion which is very popular
is to the market town of Gernika,whish has great beaches and the Basque
countries only Irish owned country pub Scanlan's Tavern

Gehry. Una nuova linea di tram (EuskoTran) è stata introdotta nel 2002. Il porto, formalmente sul fiume, è stato spostato ed espanso sul Golfo di Biscaglia, lasciando ampi spazi disponibili lungo il fiume, in zona centrale, che sono stati sfruttati per ospitare la maggior parte dei nuovi edifici.
