The history of the city of Zaragoza could not be understood without its Ebro River, which has marked the character of its people for more than 2,000 years. The city was spreading first towards the Barrio de San Pablo and little by little towards the south. Thanks to the celebration of the International Exhibition "Water and Sustainable Development" in 2008, Zaragoza has undergone an important change that has materialized in living again looking at the Ebro. But it is not the only important change that our city has experienced, in our bike tour you can discover it with its wonderful views.
