 An unrelated picture of a cathedral in SS by bushes39 Basically, if the Basques could cook it, they turned it into a food. Don't worry too much about what you're eating. There is a reason why the Basque food is craved throughout Spain. It is, by far, the best of Spain.
San Sebastian is a welcoming town. It's easy to slip in and enjoy the town. It's a beach town. There are always a few tourists around, so you never have to feel like you stand out. The easiest way to gain instant love from the people is to show a little interest in the Basque culture. They are very proud people, and will happily welcome you with open arms. Leave a Comment

by SirRichard LA CONCHA The beach of San Sebastian is popular and beautiful. Rather still waters (it's in a bay) that let you swimm and enjoy its white sand. The seaside walk is a rather pleasant place to feel the pulse of the city. Leave a Comment

by SirRichard PARTE VIEJA (Old Town) In the pedestrian old part of the city (north of the Boulevard Avenue) you can enjoy 'tapas' for a delicious original lunch. This is the way: go in a bar, ask for a drink and start choosing among the huge variety of small portins of seafood, chorizo, tortilla... Take the ones you want, and when you finish, tell the waiter what you had. Then, go to another bar (10 meters away) and repeat all the movements. After 3 or 4 bars you already had lunch!!

by DanielF On the tip of the peninsula where the old city is located, you can climb the Mount Urgull and enjoy the fantastic view: the beaches of la Concha and Ondarreta, the island of Santa Clara and the Mount Igeldo in the background, from where you can also have a breathtaking view of the city.

 Urgull Mendia by Peret Donosti (San Sebastian) has in the both sides close to the sea, two hills. Seeing the sea, in the left, Igueldo. In the rigth, Urgull Mendia. Both are an exemple as can nature and urban world live together. In both, you'll have a sigth of all Donosti. Only you must to walk up. Take it easy. Urgull mendia means "pride mountain", in Gascogne. This variety of occitan was spoken in Donosti in the XIX century, and you can find some local names with gascony roots. In fact, sapnish is a historical newer language in this city. Donosti té dos Pujols a cada extrem de la ciutat, a la platja. a l'esquerra l'Igueldo. A la reta l'Urgull Mendia. Ambdós són un exemple de com la natura i la cuitat poden conviure. I des d'ambdós hi ha una gran vista de la ciutat. "Urgull Mendia" vol dir Mont Orgull, en gascó, l'idioma romanx parlat a Sant sebastiŕ fins fa poc. Leave a Comment
