plaza moyua

A beautiful roundabout that leads into the shopping area of Bilbao with many bars and restaurants. Easy to get to other parts of the city on foot or using the Metro.The Hotel Carlton balcony is an ideal place to enjoy a drink and people watch.

One thing to know about Bilbao is that if your hotel is located in the downtown area, then it's within walking distance from the Moyua square. It also marks the center of the main shopping area with the El Corte Ingles towards the eastern end of Gran Via and the Zubiarte shopping mall on the Plaza Euskadi. The airport bus stops by the Gran Via on it's way in and picks up the passengers heading for departure from the stop located next to Carlton hotel. One of the most convenient airport-to-city connections I've bumped into and by far also one of the cheapest, costing only 1,45 € it's unbeatable comparing to taxi costing some 25-30€ and taking pretty much the same time.

Everything seemed to radiate from this Place. The airport bus (3247) drpos off and picks up there. There are shops.

Such a shame that the lovely gardens and fountain in can't be enjoyed without the rush and roar of traffic AND the smokers who can't be bothered to put their fag ends in a bin!!!

This is the Oxford Circus. The center of the Vasc world. You can find around nice buildings and you can walk to different places like Guggenheim Museum, Alhondiga, Gran Via Street...Yu can find peculiar tube entrance "Fosforitos"...Enjoy it, it´s a beautiful place!

A beautiful square off the Gran Via. Gardens are very well kept. It's also a bus stop for the airport bus. From the airport busstop (returning to airport) you have a great few of the city and the Iberdrola tower.

Just use it to transfer from the metro to the airport shuttle.For the rest there is really noting else to do.

This is a nice Plaza with many flowers and a fountain. Also the famous Carlton hotel is on the square. It is about the city center.

Take note of this circle. One spoke is a main shopping street. Another spoke leads towards the Guggenheim. Another spoke leads to restaurants with pintxos. So. Plaza Moyua makes a good landmark for orienting yourself.

nice shops and safe area to walk with your family, relatively low prices, the popular el cortingles is in the middle of this street

A beautiful plaza with some great buildings around. A good place to sit and take in the atmosphere, maybe with a chilled glass of wine!

Is a ''DIAMOND '' of Bilbao,and a lot of people is visiting it every days . .Palacio de Chávarri, Casa Montero and some other building make this ploace really beautiful . I did not know this place .I had a meeting there with a spanish friend and I arrived by taxi . Friends was not there and I had to wait 10 minutes . But the waiting was fantastic for the special view i had.

What a beautiful square in the middle of Casco Viejo it is a very lively square with lots of bars and restaurants. It is lovely to sit at one of the many bars to enjoy a drink and people watch. It seems to be a square where the locals meet to enjoy a chat and the children play. A lovely way to relax after a busy day sightseeing.

This can also be called the throbbing heart of Bilbao, because it is always busy. The flowers, the beautiful buildings (Palacio de Chávarri, Casa Montero) and of course the Fosteritos, make this square unique. I could not believe that on this very square was the bus stop for the Bizkaibus to the airport (one expect such an important stop in one of the side streets).

This plaza is right in the centre of the main commercial district on the Gran Via and has a small fountain in the centre. This plaza has eight roads intersecting around the centre circle with various interesting buildings including the Carlton Hotel. This plaza is just a natural walk through when walking around Bilbao.
