The
commercial
heart of
Bilbao is
full of
bankers,
attracted
by the
shipbuilding
and
shipping
interests
of the
port.
Industry
is rife in
Bilbao but
underneath
there is a
culture
worthy of
an
exploration.
The old
quarter of
Bilbao on
the east
side of
the river
is
connected
to the new
side by
several
bridges.
Climb the
famous 64
steps to
the top of
the town
to the
church
built in
the
1500's.
See the
Cathedral
built in
the 14th
century.
The only
way to see
the old
town is by
foot.
By night,
Bilbao
offers
several
discos,
many bars
and a
theatre. |
