Abstract
On his way to Paris, J. Adams was in Bilbao from January 15th to 20th, 1780. He visited the city on the invitation of Gardoqui and interested himself in the politicoadministrative institutions of Bilbao and Bizkaia. He transmitted his impressions and opinions of what he observed, studied and heard. On the other hand, we offer a description of a cultural-tourist guide to Bilbao written at the end of the XVIII century, so that visitors could better appreciate its material and spiritual attractions.
