Monte Igeldo

The 18th-century Torreón de Igeldo (Igeldo Tower), originally a lighthouse and currently a panoramic viewpoint, presides over Mount Igeldo, which is a fun place thanks to its neat attractions park.
I recommend you ride up the mountain on the funicular railway, the oldest in Euskadi and in operation since 1912, to observe and photograph the city from a spectacular vantage-point.
A prominent landmark on the mountain is the lighthouse on its west side, built in 1855 by civil engineer Manuel Peironcely; it's the perfect place to enjoy the beauty of the sea and the Igueldo cliffs.

A beautiful, unspoiled beach that you framed in just the right manner, showing its relationship to the land across the bay. Thanks for including the advice on how to best view and photograph the area. ~V~
