Ontdek Bilbao

Plaza Nueva is an enclosed neoclassical square in Bilbao's Casco Viejo, designed in 1821 and completed in 1851. Arcaded buildings line all four sides, with bars and restaurants under the arches; the main building, once the seat of the Biscay government, now houses Euskaltzaindia, the Basque language academy. A market fills the square on Sundays.

San Mamés is the football stadium of Athletic Club, opened in September 2013 to replace the club's earlier ground of the same name, which stood beside it from 1913. It seats over 53,000 spectators, and its outer wall is wrapped in white curved panels. The club runs a museum and stadium tours.
