Things to see and do Province Of Vizcaya

The Palace of the Government of Vizcaya, built between 1890 and 1900, is one of the most remarkable examples of Basque eclecticism, which freely combines elements of classical architecture to better blur references. The interior of the building, richly decorated with marble, mirrors and works of art, also preserves beautiful frescoes in the Salón del Trono. After the construction of this palace, which marks the apogee of the eclectic style in the Basque country, it is the modernist current that will dominate the architecture of the city from 1900.

Balmaseda, a town in the province of Bizkaia in Spain, has a tourist office where visitors can obtain information on Balmaseda and the Encartaciones region, as well as on the province of Bizkaia and the Basque Country. The tourist office also offers guided tours, a free audio guide service and the sale of merchandising and food products. On weekends and public holidays, it is open from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.

An activity offered by Getxo's tourist office (among other guided tours), the city tour by cab is the perfect way to discover Getxo's rich built heritage and astonishing history. Comfortably seated in a cab, the landscape of the various neighborhoods and their emblematic buildings flash before your eyes to the sound of podcasts broadcast over the radio. The full tour takes around 1 hour, while the monument-oriented "Getxo Monumental" version lasts just 20 minutes. Perfect for rainy days!
