Description:
'El Goog', as the Basques call Frank Gehry's titanium wonder, was meant to attract attention, and it has succeeded beyond anyone's wildest dreams. But there's more to Bilbao than the Guggenheim Museum, and there's much, much more to the Basques, Europe's oldest people, who live amid velvet green mountains, immaculate villages, Rioja vineyards and ancient holy places. This first ever guide in English to the entire Basque country, on both the Spanish and French sides of the border, gives you the lowdown on the Basques' history, culture and festivals; visits vibrant Vitoria; goes bull running in Pamplona; lives it up in the glittering seaside resorts of Biarritz and San Sebastian; and highlights the friendliest hotels, the liveliest bars and the very best New Basque cuisine. This guide includes: practical travel advice; over 250 hand-picked places to stay; over 300 restaurants, bars & cafes; 22 maps & site plans; color touring map section; stunning color photography; shopping & local specialities. (5 1/2 x 8 1/2, 316 pages, color photos, maps)
