The best places and cities to visit in Spain

Bilbao

Once known primarily as an industrial port city, Bilbao has reinvented herself as a center for modern art and architecture. Set amidst the rolling green hills of Basque country, Bilbao is home to the Guggenheim Bilbao Museum, a gleaming, modernistic structure clad in titanium designed by famed architect Frank Gehry. Established in 1914, the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum with its more than 6,000 works from the Middle Ages to the present makes a visit to this Basque city memorable.
