A feature of the Cantabrian capital is its Grand Casino, built in 1916, which presides over the Plaza de Italia, one of the busiest gathering points with its traditional summer terraces. Overlooking the sea we find the esplanade of the old balneario de la Primera and from there, the traveler heads towards the romantic Piquio Gardens, from where you can gaze at some of the most beautiful sunsets.
