Portugalete is a historic town located in the province of Biscay in the Basque Country, Spain. Situated on the left bank of the Nervión River's estuary, the town has played an important role in the region's maritime and industrial heritage. One of its most notable features is the Vizcaya Bridge, also known as the Hanging Bridge (Puente Colgante), which was built in 1893 and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This architectural marvel was the world's first transporter bridge built with a metal structure.

The town's medieval quarter, with its narrow streets and historic buildings, reflects its rich cultural heritage dating back to its founding in 1322. Portugalete combines its industrial heritage with traditional Basque culture, visible in its architecture, festivals, and gastronomy. The town has several notable buildings including the Basilica of Santa Maria, a Gothic church from the 15th-16th centuries, which dominates the old town's skyline.
