Overview

Doña Casilda de Iturrizar gave Bilbao this park almost two centuries ago. Now, she has something else to offer. She has scattered 10 words of love across her city: each one in Euskera, the oldest living language in Europe, each one hidden in the city's iconic art, waiting to be found.

This self-guided romantic quest takes you on a 75-minute walk along the ría of Bilbao. Using the Questo app on your smartphone, you follow Doña Casilda's trail at 10 stops: from the fountains of the Doña Casilda Park and the Museo de Bellas Artes, to the Puppy sculpture and the giant spider Maman at the Guggenheim Museum, the women hauling ropes at Las Sirgueras, and the white arc of the Zubizuri Bridge.

Solve puzzles, uncover Basque legends, and unlock love words hidden in the city's most iconic art.

Explore Bilbao's most beautiful riverfront and public sculpture at your own pace.

Perfect for couples and curious explorers. No prior knowledge of Bilbao or the Basque language required.
