My city, Bilbao, has changed a lot. Where there was industry, now we have modern spectacular and expensive buildings that have made Bilbao well-known in the whole world. In fact, it´s well known that only one thing(in our case the Guggenheim museum) can put a city in the map. However, in my opinion the most important part of any city is its soul, i mean, what is special in it. For example, in Bilbao, apart from visiting The Guggenheim museum, Fine arts museum or Euskalduna palace, you can enjoy the old part of the city, the essence, where you can go to have a drink of wine or as we say "potear" and eat delicious "pintxos". Besides, Bilbao is a really clean city with a lot of services like transport (underground is a good way to travel). I would recommend to visit the townhall because it´s a typical place where tourists don´t go, but it is a beautiful building.
Likewise, the people are as dynamic as the city is and very proud of themselves. One of the best things we have here is our football team, although Athletic de Bilbao is not getting good results. Moreover, there is an important theatre in Bilbao called Arriaga Theatre by the same architect who designed the town hall. Not only we have the beach near to the city but also it´s surrounded by a lot of mountains, so we can say that Bilbao is a city for every types of people.
In summery, Bilbao is a city which has lived a miracle thanks to its economic progress. Visting this city is a good way to have a good time.
