I was anxiously awaiting my visit to Bilbao expressly to see the Guggenheim Museum. While I am not a particularly huge fan of modern art, I do really appreciate beautiful and unusual architecture. This building designed by Franck Gehry does not disappoint. For photography fans it is a must to walk all the way around it, i.e. cross the bridge... More

The Guggenheim is an amazing building. Angles and waves of glass and titanium everywhere you look. The audio guide provides a lot of insight into the building of the museum and is well worth it. We thoroughly enjoyed the creativity and imagination of Frank Gehry. And, if the building wasn't enough, we loved the Installation by Ricard Serra. More

Wow, great building. Can't get my head around the crazy shape. Inside the art is impressive. They could however offer seats for people to pause. Great bistro - book ahead. More

Bilbao is a beautiful and elegant city, especially along the river. Nice bridges over the water and a recommended walking. The museum contains modern art and like other recently built museums, the structure itself is an art creation. More

Whether you are a fan of modern art or not, this building is well worth a visit. Its quite sensational, it changes with the light and the time of day and there are so many angles to view it from. The interior is just as amazing and the audio guide is excellent. The collections are not to everyone's taste, but... More

The exterior of the building is strikingly beautiful. It is designed to reflect the light, so it varies all through the day. Inside it is a perfect space to show art and the Richard Serra installation is worth a visit alone. More

The inside architecture alone is worth the visit we were there on a rainy day so had no hesitation in spending all our tme there. More

The greatest part of this visit is the exterior. Spend time admiring the many angles from up high on the bridge, or close up to the external art. The permanent collections are some what mediocre which is a shame for such a magnificent building. Have a visit to escape the relentless Bilbao rain. More

The art in the building is not that great, but that is not the point. It's the building that is the start. Try to take some time to read about how Frank Gehry chose this particular location for the museum, as it was not his 1st choice! More
