Bilbao, founded in the year 1300 is a city where one can find history in every corner and that has had an incredible evolution throughout the years. In it early beginnings it was just formed by just seven streets, which are still part of the old quarter. By the eighteen century the city changed its farming fields for the industry and  over a century it was considered an industrial city. However by the last part of the twentieth century, with the collapse of the industry the city decided to change their direction towards services and new architecture with the idea to become an attractive destination. The Guggenheim museum was the first big stone of a this evolution and was the turning point that located Bilbao in the map and as a result, Bilbao nowadays has been transformed into a city that has become an example of the new architecture and has won international awards like the LEE KUAN YEW World City Prize, considered as the Noble Prize for cities in 2010 or the Best European City in 2018 by the Academy of Urbanism.
