Puppy

Not a museum, but it is directly in the front of the Guggenheim Museum, created by Jeff Koons. It's one of the most famous symbols of modern Bilbao. It is a west Highland terrier 12 m high covered in flowers that are changed each season.

Basílica de Begoña
Overlooking Bilbao, this is perhaps the most symbolic religious building in the city. Built in the 16th-century by Sancho Martinez de Arego, who was also responsible for the Iglesia San Anton. It is a basilica of three naves. During the first Carlista War, in 1835, the façade and the tower were destroyed. The present ones were designed Jose Maria Basterra and constructed between 1902 and 1907.
