Travel back in time and be in the Spanish era, when streets are made of cobbled stones and windows are made of capiz shells. The place invokes sentimental emotions, as it echoes days of a distant past. I do hope they remove all stores and signages there and make it a real heritage village. That will preserve it longer for future generations.
The colonial influence on Spanish culture and architecture so evident in this city, that for a brief moment you seemed to have been transported into an old town somewhere in Spain or Mexico. Charming place.

This place is one of my favorite destinations in the north. I love old two story buildings and antique because I imagined the life of Filipino during the Spanish colonization in the Philippines. The antique furniture and day to day tools and equipment used during that time. Many of the old buildings are now converted into commercial areas. I tried to eat the Ilocano version of papaitan here, but my stomach cannot tolerate the taste of the said food. What I love here the most is the famous bagnet and longanisa.
This place is very touristy already. It still has its charm but not like the old days. If you get a chance to visit during the lean seasons, it'll be a great stroll. Quite scenic.
Heritage village is one of the oldest village in the Philippines. One of the pride of Ilocos Sur. Visit this place and you will be amazed. Try also there famous delicacies chicacorn and Vigan Longanisa.
The place was great. It was really nice staying in this hotel.
