These photos were taken along the rugged Atlantic Coast between San Sebastian and Bilbao….
The Basque Country is located both in France and in Spain. The Western Pyrenees split the two countries (Spain and France), but not the Basque Country which features a strong identity with its own language as well as deep rooted traditions.
Take a break in the rush : Ici et Là nature.
ICI & LA NATURE PICTURES 
These were all great shots. I feel like I just browsed through an edition of national Geographic– only this was better. Will come back to see more. Peace.

Especially love the photo of the statues of the people watching the ship passing by. Do you know who the sculptor is?

Thanks for sharing this! The Mexican half of my family comes is of Basque descendance and I have always been so curious about their culture. Hopefully one day I can visit too.

Amazing! I’ve once been briefly to Gigon and Oviedo and if I ever make it to Europe again Northern Spain will definitely be on the list!
