Bilbao is a unique city due to its past, with a historic center whose origins date back to the early 15th century. The estuary, its industrial, commercial, and mining legacy have left their mark on its streets, squares, and buildings. From San Antón Church to the Ribera Market, there are many points and corners of incredible historical and cultural heritage value.

However, in addition to all this, the area of Bilbao La Vieja and San Francisco is today one of the most important parts of the city for its shops, taverns, and alternative bars, multicultural and capable of fusing the past with the most avant-garde art and fashion.
