It must be said that some of the most renowned restaurants in Spain are located in San Sebastian.

Its estuary<\/strong> is the other great symbol of Bilbao’s regeneration. In fact, you can see people paddle surfing or rowing in it, or take a boat trip to the famous Portugalete Suspension Bridge<\/strong>, declared a World Heritage Site, and the beaches<\/strong> and spectacular cliffs of Getxo are just over half an hour away by metro.<\/span><\/p>\nBilbao<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n
