Gipuzkoa's Essential Treasures

Gipuzkoa’s landscape spans the urban elegance of San Sebastián and the dramatic geological formations of the Basque coast. This collection features the crescent-shaped La Concha Bay and Eduardo Chillida’s iconic iron sculptures at Peine del Viento. Beyond the capital, the Flysch cliffs in Zumaia reveal millions of years of geological history, while the UNESCO-listed Ekain cave preserves prehistoric rock art. Architectural landmarks include the neo-Gothic San Sebastián Cathedral and the modern Kursaal Congress Centre, alongside the historic walled town of Hondarribia.
