Bilbao’s Guggenheim Museum<br />
Since the Guggenheim Museum was opened in 1993,<br />
around one million visitors have been flocking to this<br />
sensational cultural establishment every year. The building,<br />
made of glass, titanium and sandstone, is an artwork<br />
in its own right; its exterior was designed by artists<br />
and inside you will find all the most famous names in<br />
the art world spread out over an 11,000 square metres<br />
(118,000 sq ft) exhibition space.<br />
Santiago de Compostela –<br />
a place of pilgrimage<br />
Santiago de Compostela, one of the world’s most famous<br />
pilgrimage sites, is the final stop and climax of the Road to<br />
Santiago – a pilgrimage route that has been followed since<br />
the 11th century. During this time, the city’s magnificent<br />
cathedral was also established as one of the most important<br />
pilgrimage sites in Christianity, alongside Rome and<br />
Jerusalem. This building, together with the old town, is<br />
protected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.<br />
The Islas Cíes Nature Reserve<br />
According to Galician legend, the Cíes archipelago is the<br />
place where God rested on the seventh day after he created<br />
the world – and it is easy to see why. The site, now<br />
a nature reserve, encompasses a substantial area of sea<br />
and three islands which, with their steep coasts, sand<br />
dunes and small forests, are perfect for individual hikes.<br />
Porto’s “Ribeira” old town<br />
The “Ribeira” old town in Porto, a UNESCO World Heritage<br />
Site, lies in a picturesque setting along the river Douro<br />
with its famous port-wine boats. The former “workingclass<br />
district” has now been transformed into a beautifully<br />
restored stylish quarter.<br />
