We arrived in the afternoon and stayed one night. We had time to see the Gugenheim, a nice walk through the center and the next day visit the historic center and have some tapas at the Ribera market. All Positive, except for the surprise that I got when I already returned home I got two parking tickets for a strange law that they have recently created in this municipality, to collect at the expense of the disabled that when parking in a place ️, you must get a ticket if or if, that although free, if you are not from Bilbao and you go to visit, you should know that if you do not place this ticket you are fined 100 Euros. (When these places should be a right by law.) Totally unfair! Keep this in mind if you are driving and disabled, please!
