San Sebastián

San Sebastián, (Gipuzkoa - Basque Country) Spain

 With the Bay of Biscay to the north and France only 20 kilometers (12 miles) east, this majestic city will be the European Culture Capital of Europe in 2016, sharing the honors with Wroclaw, Poland.  San Sebastián, also known as Donostia in the Basque language, is set at the mouth of the River Urumea (seen in this picture) dividing the city in two.
