SAN SEBASTIAN - FILM FESTIVAL
SAN SEBASTIAN was the most fashionable summer resort in Spain at the beginning of the 20th century, and has an elegant traditional promenade all along its curving beach. Today it is delicately old-fashioned.
The city is renowned for its summer arts festivals, street life centered in the old town, and unrivaled pintxos (local version of tapas).
