THE BILBAO ROUND - STOP BY STOP

HOLE 1 - PAR 3

Bilboko Guggenheim museoa

Let me show you this building by architect Frank Gehry. It is a museum of modern and contemporary art located in Bilbao, Biscay, Spain, and is affiliated to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation. King Juan Carlos I of Spain inaugurated the museum on 18 October 1997. That inauguration featured an exhibition of 250 contemporary works of art. The building's inception was in 1997, and it has since become one of the largest museums in Spain. I've noticed the crowds are constant here, which makes sense given the 1,322,000 annual visitors.
