“I'm Precious. I'm Rare. I'm Amethyst...”

Our Field Trip in Vigan!!!

Location:Vigan,Ilocos Sur,Philippines

The City of Vigan is a 5th class city in the province of Ilocos Sur, Philippines. It is the capital city of Ilocos Sur. The city, located on the western coast of the large island of Luzon, facing the South China Sea.

It is a World Heritage Site in that it is the most intact example of a Spanish colonial town in Asia, and is well-known for its cobblestone streets and a unique architecture that fuses Asian building design and construction with European colonial architecture and planning.

According to the 2000 census, it has a population of 45,143 people in 9,193 households.

The language there is Ilocano,
I got a PHRASES here which is written in Ilocano then later I will translate it to English:
NAPAN NAK NAGPASYAR DIAY VIGAN
G'YEM NAGPINTAS GAYAM!
NAGMAYAT TI AGPASYAR NGA NAKALUGAN TI CALESA
DIAY HERITAGE VILLAGE,
DAIGTI SIMBAAN,
DIAY PAGNURBAYAN,
KEN DADDUMAY PAY!
NANGAN NAK TI EMPANADA,BIBINGKA,SINANGLAO,MIKI...
APUNAYAWEN,NAG GANAS!

The translation into English:
I WENT TO VIGAN TOURING THE WHOLE PLACE
IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!
THE FEELING IN TOURING THE VIGAN WHILE RIDING IN THE CALESA IS SO WONDERFUL
THE HERITAGE VILLAGE,
THE CHURCHES,
THE AREAS WHERE THE POTS WHERE MADE,
AND MANY MORE!
I ATE EMPANADA,BIBINGKA,SINANGLAO,MIKI...
SO HURRY,COME LET'S GO TO VIGAN!!!
**************************************************************************************
but our tour guide is so abnormal...
they didn't say that we went already to Heritage:(
we went also to the hiddden garden and the BALUARTE!
Baluarte have animals like Ostrich,tigers,lion, donkeys,butterfly garden,alpaca,monkey,eagles,iguana and snake.

Chavit lives in vigan but I have not seen him,he is their hero there. He help the poor people from dying.
Crisologo's house/museum has his picture when he died."WHAT A BLOODY BODY OF CRISOLOGO WHEN HE DIED*

I LOVE VIGAN!!!
