About City of Bilbao

Bilbao, located in northern Spain, is the largest city in the Basque Country and the capital of the province of Biscay. Founded in the early 14th century, Bilbao has evolved from a small fishing town to an industrial powerhouse, particularly in the 19th and 20th centuries. The city sits along the Nervión River, just 14 kilometers from the Bay of Biscay, making it an important port city with a rich maritime history. Its strategic location has played a significant role in its economic and cultural development. Today, Bilbao is home to around 350,000 residents, with the metropolitan area housing over a million people. The city's transformation in recent decades, particularly with the opening of the Guggenheim Museum in 1997, has turned it into a cultural hub and a symbol of urban regeneration. Bilbao's blend of traditional Basque culture, modern architecture, and natural landscapes makes it a vibrant and dynamic city that attracts visitors from around the world.
