Bilbao Spain History and Architecture

History and Architecture

What is known about Bilbao? In fact, in the historical terms are quite a bit. The city does not suffer from any major disasters. This wonderful place is located along the banks of the river Nervion. It is known throughout the world for its beautiful nature, unique and rich architecture, fine cuisine and living accommodations. Bilbao hotels are very congruous to urban life and its peculiarities. As the historical center can be divided into two parts - the medieval town and the newer buildings of the old quarters - the medieval center has preserved the prints of all the events of the city history, and now the centuries-old houses are taken place side by side with boutiques of famous fashion houses and modern hotels.

Founded in the summer in 1300 by lord of Biscay, Diego Lopez V of Haro, it was a small fishing village. Only after seven centuries it became a huge economic and industrial development metropolis, whose population is around four hundred thousand people. And every year there is a big number of tourists at the hotels of Bilbao. Most of the rooms meet them with the individual and stylish interior and modern amenities, including air conditioning and TV. Some of the hotels reflect the past life of the city. For example, Petit Palace Arana Bilbao hotel is housed in the building of the 18th century, on the outskirts of the historic district of the city, and bears its features. In the lobby you will find complimentary newspapers and an Internet corner with free internet access. It is just a short walk from the main tourist attractions, including the Guggenheim Museum.

Historic Centre of Bilbao form seven medieval streets - Ronda, Somera, Artecalle, Tenderia, Belosti Calle, Carniceria and Barrena, which are crossed by a network of modern pedestrian streets teeming with buildings, both from the past and present. Getting to Bilbao, depending on the route, you can see a completely different city. There is a medieval Bilbao, with narrow streets and quaint architecture, and there is a city in the modern style. Mansions of the nobility of the 1800-1920's are pompous and have an interesting architecture. It “stands” side by side with the samples of different trends and styles. There are many extravagant buildings; most of them are in Gothic style.
