Chillida Leku

CHILLIDA-LEKU is an outdoors museum that gathers the work of Eduardo Chillida (San Sebastián 1924-2002) in the properties of “Zabalaga farmhouse”, constructed in 1594 at the town of Hernani (Guipúzcoa-Spain). 10 kilometers far from San Sebastián, 40 sculptures of great format stand out on the ground of 12 hectares and a hundred small format works and drawings, created during 50 years of work, appear inside the restored farmhouse. In the same town in 1951, after his brief Parisian experience, Eduardo Chillida began his works in the forge of a blacksmith.

El Gaitero Plaza

Reviewed By Noraatc - Sudbury, United States

El Gaitero Plaza is the heart of lovely Laguardia. Crowds are always there, bats, cafes and restaurants around are countless, the houses with wrought iron railings of their balconies look charming. Loved the plaza and old narrow streets radiating from it. Nearby is the promenade to walk and take in the sweeping views of the Rioja Valley’s vineyards.

Sagrado Corazon

Reviewed By johnhp702 - Derby, United Kingdom

The "Sacred Heart" statue dominates the skyline and keeps an eye on the city below, well worth the walk up Mount Urgull to see it in all its splendor.

Spectacular and loved by all ages. Possibly the most photographed tourist attraction in Bilbao. Beautiful colours and glorious when the sun shines. Jeff Koons is a genius. Not to be missed .Enjoy.
