Things to do in Bilbao
Guggenheim Bilbao
The Frank Gehry designed Guggenheim Museum features artists "from public to private" collections including Van Gogh, Cezanne, Picasso, Kandinsky, Pollock, Calder, and many others. It's close to the city centre, the nearest metro station being Moyua. Give yourself three hours, two for inside the exhibition, and another hour for walking around the outside of the building to admire it.
Bilbao Fine Arts Museum
The Fine Arts Museum is located entirely inside the city's Doña Casilda Iturrizar park. Notable for the lengthy period it covers (from the 12th century to the present day) and the extraordinary variety of art works acquired since its inception, the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum collection currently boasts more than six thousand works including paintings, sculptures, drawings, engravings and objects from the decorative arts.
