Where you'll arrive
What awaits you in Bilbao
A city that reinvented itself. The Guggenheim in its titanium scales turned an industrial port into a capital of contemporary art. Around the museum are Louise Bourgeois's spider, the puppy made of flowers and the Nervión riverbank with Calatrava's Zubizuri footbridge.
The Casco Viejo and the seven streets. The old town on the other bank - pintxo bars, the Ribera market under stained glass and the funicular up Mount Artxanda with a panorama of the whole valley. Norman Foster's metro links the centre with the coast.
A UNESCO transporter bridge. Half an hour away is the Vizcaya Bridge in Portugalete, the oldest transporter bridge in the world: a gondola carrying people and cars has glided beneath its span since 1893. The bridge in Portugalete is half an hour from the centre; you can add it with hourly hire.
