   • Guggenheim Museum. Where better to start than this iconic building on the Nervión. Half of your visit will be spent outside in awe of the flowing lines and titanium and glass cladding.
   • Fine Arts Museum. This attraction has a more traditional museum setting and is also a heavyweight, seen as one of the finest art galleries in Spain. Particularly notable is the large time-span covered by the collection, with the oldest work dating to the 1100s and the newest from the present day.
   • Casco Viejo. The old core of Bilbao on the right bank of the Nervión was originally defended by city walls. These were removed in the late-1800s and now the district is made up of seven pedestrianised streets and two plazas with boutiques, bars and restaurants.
   • Plaza Nueva. The nerve centre of the Caso Viejo, Bilbao’s main plaza is a typically Spanish monumental square and a grand place to meet up with friends in the evening.
