I'm going there in the Summer! Also Bilbao, and the caves in Cantabria. This Rick Steves guy gives a very pleasant overview! I like his being interested in the language.
I don't think you are showing what San Sebastian has to offer. Very very por As for showing a Marihuana shop as somthing of interest. In my entire live seen one of this shops. You haven´t mentioned the international film festival, the best restaurants in the world of the fantastic bars in the old town. Obviously you documents are not of any interest at all after seen this one.
BASQUE COUNTRY IS NOT SPAIN!!FREEDOM FOR THE BASQUE COUNTRY!!
GORA EUSKAL HERRIA ASKATUTA!!!
Lovely place and the beach is to die for : )
Very cool. I'm excited to visit. Also loved how he went into the Cannabis shop.
I travel there next month..October..thank you for this video
That's where my surname comes from! Lazalde!
as locals call the place…..yes its name is donostia and its inhabitants are basque, mostly basque language speakers, s senastian is the alien name imposed on us and used by anti basque spaniards and illiterate tourists
so what is the true name of the region? I know that Spain has given it a name but what do the indigenous people call it?
Seems like a lovely place, but the sun is just too hot for me.
LOL square-looking guy promoting the pot shop!!!
essa merda de regiao que se torne independente rapidamente porque eu gosto de espanha
😁
It wasn't a 1830 fire, the English burned it to the ground in 1812
Please tell the Basque government to tell the house owner to release house for rent, not everyone has money to buy thanks

Ah, San Sebastián: they told me it was the fairest littoral city in all Spain. Well, for setting, agreed. That cute wee curve of bay with the mini-islands is, indeed, reminiscent of a small-scale version of Rio. But the city? The truth? For me, it has about 3 streets and Plaza Consti. to see, but the rest is nothing but a sprawling, apartment-blockey bathetic let-down. Lift San Sebastián up, plonk it 200 miles inland and it would be what it really is: a vaguely, modern-looking nondescript town with a rather small, but not unattractive, Old Town, based on one mildly attractive plaza, and, frankly, little else. Unless you like the pintxos bars.
Beautiful city and Basque culture, Spain is a marvel of different cultures and ethnicities.
