Experiencing the Spanish lifestyle up close is no problem in the small provincial city of Bilbao (BIO). Bilbao (BIO) is the largest city in the Basque Country, the capital of Biskaya Province and one of the most important cities in the region. Up until the 1990s, the little city had not been developed as a tourist area, so the community had the option of re-conceptualising the city centre. The result is as surprising as it is fascinating: a wonderful holiday destination was created in the small provincial city. The many small restaurants are particularly charming, enchanting their guests with local and most importantly freshly prepared dishes. They serve only the best Spanish wines with them, of course.
