The Vizcaya Bridge

Just outside Bilbao, in the province of Biscay is one of the city's main attractions: Puente de Vizcaya, also known as Puente Colgante or Hanging Bridge. There are two ways of crossing it, both with equally dramatic views: the first is by gondola cable car and the second by walking along the pedestrian path. If you are still not convinced, the bridge has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO for being the 'perfect combination of beauty and functionality'.

Gaztelugatxe (Bermeo)

Gaztelugatxe has become famous as a filming location for the TV series "Game of Thrones", where it is depicted as the castle of Dragonstone. The rough coast has shaped rocks, tunnels, and caves which now form fascinating scenery. On top of a rock, there is a small church, dating back to the 10th century, which can be reached via a narrow path. Gaztelugatxe belongs to the municipality of Bermeo and is only a 45-minute drive away from Bilbao.

Doña Casilda Iturrizar Park

The Doña Casilda Iturrizar Park is the city's largest green space located by Paseo Don Jose Anselmo Clavé, next to the Museum of Fine Arts. The park was built in 1907 by an architect called Ricardo Bastida. Strolling through this park you will come across a water fountain, a basketball court, and a pavilion for live performances. If the directions are unclear, you can always try asking a local for 'el parque de los patos', or the park with the ducks, as it is affectionately nicknamed.

Basilica of Begoña

You will find the Basilica of Begoña at Calle Virgen de Begoña on the top of a hill. The church construction started in 1511 and it is widely held that the Virgin Mary appeared at that exact spot. You can see that the church is still important to the sailors of Bilbao. There are still ships which are named after the church, Virgen de Begoña or just Begoña–the patron saint of Biscay. Experience history first-hand when you walk through the doors of this basilica.
