What to see in Bilbao

10. Visit to the Guggenheim Museum

(Abandoibarra Etorbidea 2, 48009 Bilbao, +34 94 435 90 00) This futuristic-looking museum that exhibits modern art is one of the symbols of Bilbao. The area around it has also been completely redesigned and today even sports competitions such as Red Bull’s adrenaline-fueled cliff jumping take place (you can get an impression in the video below!). The entrance to the museum is guarded by the giant dog sculpture "Puppy", which is made entirely of flowers. Gigantism reflects the humor of the people of Bilbao, who are said to like to exaggerate.
