...Bilbao...
Bilbao, is the capital of the province of Biscay (Bizkaia) and is the
largest city in the Basque Country which is in northern Spain. Bilbao is also known as "el botxo" because it is enclosed by two small mountains called Pagasarri (to the south) and Artxanda (to the north).
Bilbao is well known forThe Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.Guggenheim is a modern and contemporary art museum designed by Canadian-American architect Frank Gehry. I think that the museum is a typical thing of Bilbao, that everybody visits when they come here.
The University of Deusto is also well known throughout the world. It's famous because of its law career and its historical importance. The university has campuses in Bilbao and San Sebastián. I think that it's a beautiful building for an university and it's located in a nice area.
Bilbao isn't a very big city, but near it are other places that you wouldn't forget, like Algorta, Larrabasterra, Sopelana, Plentzia... these villages are really nice and you can enjoy them specially in summer, going to the beach and sunbathing.
