Ría de Bilbao
Bilbao, Spain
A tidal river that cuts through the heart of Bilbao, the Ría de Bilbao played a central role in the city's industrialization. The Guggenheim Museum, with its gleaming titanium curves, stands as an emblem of the city's transformation from industrial hub to cultural destination. Walking or cycling along the river's banks offers a mix of old shipyards and cutting-edge modern architecture.
