Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situated on the banks of the Nervion, Bilbao is the largest city in Spain's Basque Country. Milder and rainier than most other parts of Spain, the greenery of Bilbao is both a blessing and a curse: the climate here is as much a welcome relief from the heat of the dry plains in the south as a thorn in the side of those hoping for a day at the beach. But the shore of the Bay of Biscay isn't really the main attraction--instead, Bilbao is perhaps the best place in the world to experience the ancient culture and language of the Basque people, which has stubbornly held its own over thousands of years and is now completely unlike any modern-day culture in Europe. Wink Travel Guides introduce you to the best world travel destinations, in a clear and concise way, illustrated by photos.
