Guggenheim Museum Bilbao

The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The museum is dedicated to American artist Frank Gehry, who is best known for his dynamic and innovative approach to form. The Guggenheim Museum in New York is the largest museum of modern art in the world.

It is most interesting to visit this shocking institution with a guide on an excursion, which can be ordered on the excurzilla website.

The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao comprises a major part of the Basque town, which is also the capital of Spain. The museum occupies a prominent place in the history of Bilbao. It was founded by a German-born artist, Julius B. Guggenheim, who arrived in Bilbao seller in correspondence with his brother, Carl. The brothers were seeking an area that was too unoccupied to be occupied by German immigrants. Guggenheim wanted to create a residential center, which he did by creating a plaza at the edge of a lagoon.

This was the first museum in Spain that was exclusively directed on marine life. In addition to the marine life section, the museum Bilbao has a Zoo, Botanical Garden, Environmental Research Institute and Early American Art Gallery. It is considered to be one of the major attractions of Bilbao. Tourists from all over Europe flock to the area during the summer to see this attraction. This is why the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Another reason for the museum's popularity is its location. Situated in the Old Town of Bilbao just next to the harbor, the Guggenheim is located on a peninsula that juts into the Atlantic Ocean. This allows visitors to experience an Old World charm combined with a taste of Spain's freshness and culture. The museum offers access to the Guggenheim Museum as well as to the rest of the Old Town.

As is the case with any tourist spot in Spain, there are plenty of restaurants in and around the museum. However, the local cuisine in el ensanche is far superior to any restaurant in Spain. El Ensanche cuisine uses ingredients from Bilbao's dairy and poultry markets, along with vegetables from its plentiful garden and citrus groves. Vegetarians can enjoy some meat and fish dishes, but it is prohibited to buy fresh fish and shellfish from the El Bosqueto Market

In addition to food and drink, the Guggenheim Museum also offers an education program that is designed to educate visitors about the Guggenheim Museum and what it means to the history of art in America. In this program, participants are encouraged to create a wax mold of a particular artist or piece of artwork. After the mold is completed, the wax is sent to the Guggenheim Museum for analysis. Museum information guides, including maps and photos, are also available at the museum. For travelers planning a vacation to Bilbao and the surrounding region, the Guggenheim Museum in San Francisco is a must see.
