San Sebastian Spain

San Sebastian is the capital of the province of Guipuzcoa. It became a popular tourist destination in the late 19th century thanks to Queen Christina of Austria, who spent her summers there. The beauty of the city and its cuisine are two of its main tourist attractions. La Concha Bay dominates the city, flanked by Monte Igeldo and Monte Urgull. Facing La Concha is the Island of Santa Clara, where the lighthouse is located and can be reached by boat from El Puerto. To the left of La Concha is Ondarreta beach, and at its far end, we find the set of sculptures "Comb of the Wind" by Eduardo Chillida. The old town, located at the foot of Monte Urgull between the port and the mouth of the Urumea, comes alive each evening when tapas and Basque specialties such as shellfish, seafood, and squid can be enjoyed in local bars. The old town displays a Belle Époque splendor that will amaze all visitors. The city hosts the San Sebastián International Film Festival and the Quincena Musical, among other significant events, attracting spectators from all over the world. Elegant, sophisticated, and with a turn-of-the-century feel, San Sebastian is considered one of Spain's most beautiful cities.
