原创题Bilbao is a city in northern Spain.
People from all over the world visit it to enjoy
its art,architecture(a建筑风格)and delicious
food.
However,Bilbao was not always popular
with tourists.For much of the 20th century,
Bilbao was an industrial(工业的)city.And it
was dirty,with a river that smelled bad and
factory smoke in the air.After the city's
industry grew weaker and many people lost
their jobs,the leaders there decided that
Bilbao needed to change.

MINGWEN CULTURE
A big part of that change was opening the
Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in 1997.Since
then,the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao has
become Bilbao's most famous place.It brought
millions of people to Bilbao,not just for the
art but to look at the building itself.A huge
building made of metal(金属),stone and glass
that looks like a large ship.The museum was
just one part of a bigger plan to change the
city.A new metro network was also built and
the river was cleaned.
MINGWEN CULTURE
Now,people can take boat tours to learn
about Bilbao's history and see the Guggenheim
Museum Bilbao from the river.They can also
see other new buildings like the 165-meter-tall
Iberdrola Tower or visit the old towns to walk
through 15th-century streets.
And if you visit Bilbao,you must try the
small snacks there.One of the most famous
snacks is called pintxos-pieces of bread with
all kinds of delicious toppings.They come in
all sizes and shapes.You can find them in
almost any bar in Bilbao.You will surely like
them.
