San Sebastián is a resort town on the Bay of Biscay in Spain’s mountainous Basque Country. It’s known for Playa de la Concha and Playa de Ondarreta, beaches framed by a picturesque bayfront promenade, and world-renowned restaurants helmed by innovative chefs. In its cobblestoned old town (Parte Vieja), upscale shops neighbor vibrant pintxo bars pairing local wines with bite-size regional specialties. San Sebastian Donostia is a coastal city and municipality located in the Basque Autonomous Community, Spain. It lies on the coast of the Bay of Biscay, 20 km (12 miles) from the French border. The capital city of Gipuzkoa.
The main economic activities of San Sebastian Donostia are commerce and tourism, and San Sebastian Donostia is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Spain. Despite the city’s small size, events such as the San Sebastián International Film Festival have given it an international dimension.
The Parte Vieja (Old Town) is the traditional core area of the city, and was surrounded by walls up to 1863, when they were demolished so as to occupy the stretch of sand and land that connected the town to the mainland. Antiguo stands at the west side of the city beyond the Miramar Palace. It is arguably the first population nucleus, even before the land at the foot of Urgull (Old Part) was settled. A monastery of San Sebastián el Antiguo. Amara Zaharra has eventually merged with the city centre to a large extent, since former Amara lay on the marshes at the left of the River Urumea.
Amara Berri is the city expansion to the south came about as of the 1940s, after the works to canalize the river were achieved. Gros is built on the sandy terrain across the river. The Gros or Zurriola surf beach by the river's mouth bears witness to that type of soil. One of the newest parts in the city, Aiete kept a rural air until not long ago. Egia, stemming from (H)Egia (Basque for either bank/shore or hill), is a popular district of Donostia on the right side of the Urumea beyond the train station. Intxaurrondo is a large district to the east of the city. The original nucleus lies between the railway and the Ategorrieta Avenue, where still today the farmhouse Intxaurrondo Zar, declared National Monument.
Altza (Basque for alder tree) is the easternmost district of San Sebastián along with Bidebieta and Trintxerpe. Ibaeta stands on the former location for various factories (e.g., Cervezas El León) of San Sebastián, with the buildings of the old industrial estate being demolished in the late 20th century. Loiola lies by the Urumea at the south-east end of the city. It comprises a small patch of detached houses (Ciudad Jardín) and a core area of 6-odd floor buildings.
Riberas de Loiola is a new modern district erected in the 2000s next to the city's inner bypass and south road entrance to Donostia. A pedestrian bridge spans the Urumea river onto the Cristina Enea Park. The Martutene district bordering to the south on the town of Astigarraga comes next to Loiola in the south direction. The exclave Zubieta (meaning 'place of bridges') was a picturesque old village up to recent years, with a bunch of houses.

Must See Parts of Spain: Basque Country & Dragonstone | 4K
Must see stops in the Basque Country and Spain! We explored San Sebastian, hiked the San Juan de Gaztelugatxe (Dragonstone Castle location in Game of Thrones @ 3:05 in the video), enjoyed the views at Flysch in Zumaia, went for a hike up Ulia Mountain, ate endless Pintxos, and rented a car to travel along the coast to see the sights and the local towns.

TOP TRAVEL TIPS:
*If you want to see the coastline, a car is needed. I only rented a car for one day which was enough to see the towns and sights along the coast between San Sebastian and Bilbao.
*A car is not recommended for getting around Spain or even travelling in and out of San Sebastian. The train station is in the downtown and is very easy to get to.
*We did got to Bilbao and wish we had skipped it. The smaller towns have way more to offer for a tourists.
*San Sebastian is a small city with so much to do. Three nights there is a must!
*The hike on Ulia Mountain leads to another town- Pasaia. We were too lazy and ran out of town, but in the summer with more daylight this would be a scenic hike.
*Flysch and San Juan de Gaztelugatxe are very close to each other and make for a great quick road trip. Very worth it, both are amazing sites!
The trip included:
(0:00) Intro (San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, Ulia Mountain, Flysch, View of San Sebastian, Flysch, Ulia Mountain, San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, Sunset at San Sebastian from the Londres Hotel).
(0:26) Hike along the coastline of Ulia Mountain- accessable from Zurriola Beach. Good hiking info here:
(1:09) San Sebastian- view from our hotel and exploring the town
(1:41) Eating foot at La Cuchara de San Telmo
(1:59) Quick stop in Getaria
(2:08) Exploring Flysch in Zumaia
(3:03) Hiking to the top of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe- Used in season 7 of Game of Thrones as the location of Dragonstone (the castle on top is of course computer generated)

Places to see in ( San Sebastian - Spain ) Monte Urgull
Places to see in ( San Sebastian - Spain ) Monte Urgull
Urgull is a hill by the ocean sitting at the heart of the Basque city of San Sebastián, Gipuzkoa, Spain. The hill (123 m at its highest point) shapes along with Mount Ulia and Igeldo the city's coastline relief, standing at the northern end of a peninsula formerly linked to mainland by a spit of sand between the river Urumea and the Bay of La Concha (nowadays a built-up area making up the city centre).
The hill became a defense point since the early ages of the city foundation in the 12th century, but the walls and the military structure were reinforced especially after the modern state boundaries took shape in the 16th century. The hill is topped by a stronghold (headquarters, barracks and warehouses), the Mota Castle, but it had a chapel and a conspicuous 12 metre-long sculpture of Jesus Christ added in 1950, now towering over the bay.
The hill (as well as the city) was a hotspot for military operations, like the ones of the Siege of San Sebastián (1813) and the assaults of 1823, 1836 and 1876 (Carlist Wars). The hill lost its military interest on account of the city's newly acquired tourist resort status and was sold to the city council in 1924. Urgull shows nowadays a tree-covered surface for the most part, picturesque military structures reminiscent of other times and pleasant promenades with outstanding views over the bay and the city. The rooms of the stronghold at the hill top accommodate a small history museum, part of the major San Telmo Museoa located at the south-eastern access of the hill.

Travel Vedeo in San Sebastian
The city is in the north of the Basque Country, on the southern coast of the Bay of Biscay. San Sebastián's picturesque shoreline makes it a popular beach resort. The seaside environment is enhanced by hilly surroundings that are easily accessible, i.e., Urgull (at the heart of the city by the seashore), romantic Mount Ulia extending east to Pasaia, Mount Adarra rising proud far on the south and Igeldo, overlooking the bay from the west.
The city sits at the mouth of the River Urumea, Donostia having been built to a large extent over the river's wetlands during the last two centuries. In fact, the city centre and the districts of Amara Berri and Riberas de Loiola lie on such terrain and the former bed of the river, diverted to its current canalized course in the first half of the 20th century.[9]
San Sebastián (Spanish: [san seβasˈtjan]; French: Saint-Sébastien) or Donostia (Basque: [doˈnos̺tia])[3] is a coastal city and municipality located in the Basque Autonomous Community, Spain. It lies on the coast of the Bay of Biscay, 20 km (12 miles) from the French border. Capital city of Gipuzkoa, the municipality's population is 186,409 (2012), with its metropolitan area reaching 436,500 (2010).[4] Locals call themselves donostiarra (singular), both in Spanish[5] and Basque.
The main economic activities are commerce and tourism, and it is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Spain.[6] Despite the city’s small size, events such as the San Sebastián International Film Festival have given it an international dimension. San Sebastián, along with Wrocław, Poland, will be the European Capital of Culture in 2016.[7]
