BiLbAo!!!



Bilbao is my home town. I have lived here since i was born. I think that´s a beautiful town, so i think i´m not going to move from here.
Bilbao is a place where you can´t get bored.

There are plenty of things to do, for example visit the famous Guggenheim museum or have a good lunch at the famous basque restaurants or go shopping, but there are also other choices.





Sport is also an important thing for Bilbao. Atlhetic is the city football team an it has a special caracteristic; all of the players have either to be born in the Basque country or have basque family. Although the team isn´t very good, several years ago it was the best team of Europe.
















On the other hand, the city center called Moyua is also important because there is the shopping area. The most known street of Bilbao is the Gran Via where you can find lots of famous shops, for example, pepe jeans or zara. Zubiarte is also another place where you can go to spend time. Apart from the shops there is also a big cinema and plenty of restaurants where you can eat everything you want. I like zubiarte very much because it´s not very far away from i live, and is an alternaive to go when the weather isn´t very good.


But if you don´t like the city you also have the countryside. Near Bilbao you can find the coast or the mountains. The underground is a good way of public transport to go there because you can find the beaches next to the stations. But if you prefer the mountains gorbea is a good choice too see the wonderful landscape the basque country has.

I hope this information help you to find Bilbao as beautiful as I find it.
