País Vasco/Euskadi's Absolute Essentials

This collection spans the architectural evolution of the Basque Country, from the 15th-century Gothic Luzea Tower and the medieval defensive Puerta de San Juan in Bermeo to Santiago Calatrava’s modern Zubizuri bridge. It highlights Bilbao’s cultural core, featuring the Neo-baroque Arriaga Theatre and the extensive collection of the Fine Arts Museum. Nature is represented by the 222-meter Salto del Nervión, Spain's highest waterfall, while urban green spaces like Doña Casilda Park offer a glimpse into the region's 19th-century landscaping.
