  • Teatro Arriaga Antzokia
    A magnificent neobaroque theatre inspired by the Paris Opera, the Arriaga Theatre is a true architectural gem of Bilbao. Inaugurated in 1890, it stands out with its grand façade and ornate interior, making it one of the city's most iconic landmarks.
  • The Church of San Nicolás de Bari, designed by Ignacio Ibero, is located in a prime area of Bilbao, close to Areatza Park and the Arriaga Theatre. Built between 1743 and 1756, this historical church is a symbol of Bilbao’s early development along the Nervión River.
  • The impressive BBVA building, formerly the Banco de Bilbao, was designed by French architect Eugène Lavalle in the mid-19th century. With its Beaux-Arts style, this grand structure on Plaza de San Nicolás is a testament to the city’s evolving financial history.
  • Biblioteca Central de Bidebarrieta
    Bidebarrieta Library, named after the "new road" built in 1483, is a beautiful cultural hub located in a historic building. It offers visitors a quiet space to explore literature and engage in cultural events, reflecting Bilbao's rich heritage.
  • Plaza Nueva
    Situated in Bilbao’s Old Town, Plaza Nueva is a stunning Neoclassical square with 18 arches on two sides. Built in the 19th century, it represents the enlightened spirit of the time and remains a lively spot for locals and visitors alike.
  • Casco Viejo
    Bilbao’s Old Town, or Zazpikaleak, is a charming maze of seven streets full of history. Each street, named after the old trades that once defined the area, offers a unique glimpse into the city’s past, from Somera to Barrenkale.
  • Escaleras De Solokoetxe
    The Solokoetxe elevator provides a convenient link between Bilbao’s Old Town and the hillside neighborhood of Solokoetxe. This modern lift offers stunning views and an easy way to reach higher ground.
  • Escaleras De Solokoetxe
    Solokoetxe is a peaceful neighborhood perched above the Old Town, blending quiet streets with heavy traffic due to its strategic location. Its architecture and vibrant atmosphere make it an intriguing part of the city.
