Inside the city La Alhóndiga

Culture and recreation center.

Hello friends
Today I present a piece of my city.
A building built in 1905 with a beautiful facade.
His mission was always wine storage, everyone spent a few days here before being distributed to wineries and markets.
She had a few years that she died and it was simply an empty and lifeless place.

But the building began to come alive and be a goal for many mayors and architects.
The Bilbaínos did not want to lose something of our culture, so there was no choice but to adapt it to modern times without losing its charm.
Finally, the Alhóndiga was renovated as a multi-purpose civic center, with the intervention of designer Philippe Starck and was inaugurated on May 18, 2010

Now inside a building of the first century we find something modern.
At first glance we see its columns all different, each in its own way, as if we would shout to the wind that we are all different.
That we can all form great things together.

So we felt it almost as if it were our living room.
With children playing and families reunited.

If we look up.
We can see bare hands and feet floating in the pool water.
Located on the first floor open every day of the year, if you feel fish you already know where to go.

We can also see between the crystals how Sunday sports.
We have to keep our body healthy, but I prefer to photograph.

We are already on the first floor
Library.
I can't resist this picture I love it.
Seen through the porthole.
You see the future of the world, the present and future bright minds.

We can observe its iron beams and its glass walls.

This is our new Alhondiga but now it is not called that
It is Azkuna Zentroa in honor of one of the best mayor.
A place for everyone to enjoy.
