About Vigan

Vigan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Philippines, is a captivating time capsule that transports visitors back to the Spanish colonial era. This charming city in Ilocos Sur province is renowned for its well-preserved 16th-century architecture, cobblestone streets, and horse-drawn carriages known as kalesas. History buffs and culture enthusiasts will be enchanted by Vigan's unique blend of Filipino, Chinese, and Spanish influences, evident in its cuisine, architecture, and local traditions. Travelers can explore the iconic Calle Crisologo, visit ancestral houses turned museums, and indulge in local delicacies like longganisa and empanada. Vigan is particularly popular among cultural tourists, photographers, and families looking for an educational yet relaxing getaway. While most attractions are within walking distance, riding a kalesa offers a quintessential Vigan experience. However, visitors should be prepared for crowds during peak seasons and limited nightlife options, as the city tends to quiet down in the evenings.
