BANTAY BELL TOWER (BANTAY) A ten-minute ride away from Vigan is the historic Bantay Belfry, which sits on a hill. This towering structure is one of the sights that should be visited by travelers not only because of its histor-ical and cultural significance but also because of its com-manding view of Vigan from the highest portion of it that can be climbed. Some may even claim that they can see most of Ilocos Sur from this bell tower. It is called the Bantay Belfry because it is located in the Bantay district of Vigan along the national highway. It was said to be the people’s watchtower, part of the city’s defense that helps in alerting it against possible enemies. It was built in 1591.

NATIONAL MUSEUM (VIGAN) The Old Carcel (Provincial Jail) is the birthplace of President Elpidio Quirino who happens that his father was a jail warden before, it also houses the paintings of Esteban Pichay about the Basi Revolt. Father Jose Burgos Museum is an excellent showcase or archaeological and ethnographic treasures, antiques, dioramas of local historical events and photographs of Ilocano heroes and achievers. It is the birthplace of Fr. Jose Apolonio Burgos, one of the most illustrious sons of Vigan who fought for ecclesiastical reforms during the Spanish colonial period.

HIDDEN GARDEN (Flores Pots & Garden) Began as a private garden by an innovative nature-lover back in 1948, it had grown as a garden with so much to offer and a little bit hidden from the main road, which explains why it is called so.

CRISOLOGO MUSEUM (VIGAN) Houses the memo-rabilia of the late Congressman Floro Crisologo and his wife, the former Governor of the Province of Ilocos Sur, Hon. Carmeling Crisologo.

PAGBURNAYAN (VIGAN) The tradition-al earthen jar-making in Vigan is believed to have been introduced by the Chinese traders in the 14th century to provide an all-weather container or vessel for fermenting vinegar, basi or wine (from sugarcane extract) and salt.

BALUARTE ZOO (VIGAN) Former Gov. Chavit Singson’s residence, features an inter-active mini zoo, skeet shooting range, a but-terfly garden, pony rides, a function hall and an animal encounter show (10:00 in the morn-ing, 2:00 and 4:00 in the afternoon). Visitors are given free admission.

The Dancing Fountain As a world class features, the dancing fountain prides that it symbolizes every Ilocano’s way of life—dances with every beat and cadence of life's music. The colorful scheme mirros the Ilocano’s desire for perfection and love of beauty, and the water and form join the rhythm of the ages reflecting the rich history of the Province. Overall, the synchrony shows the brilliance of the Ilocano’s charac-ter, values and life.

Vigan Heritage Village (Ancestral Houses) Also known as the Kamestizoan District, the Vigan Heritage Village is replete with ances-tral houses that date back to the 18th or 19th century, with ancient tile roofs, massive hardwood floorings, balustrades and azoteas in varying Spanish-Mexican-Chinese archi-tectural styles/designs. On December 2, 1992, the historic city of Vigan was declared a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO.

Pag-abelan The abel iloko is one of the oldest traditional craft of Vigan which is known throughout the country and overseas for their design and ingenuity. A Spanish chronicler, Dr. Antonio Morga wrote in 1610 in his Sucesis de las Islas Filipinas that the American Plain Indians heavily fa-voured the thick and coarse type of cotton blankets coming fron the Ilocos, presumably shipped to Mexico via the galleon trade. When the vaunted Spanish armada was deci-mated off the British coast in 1588, the sails

of the Spanish armada were said to have been Ilocos manta cloth. The abel loom weaving still thrives to this day in five (5) barangays of Vigan, namely Camanggaan, Beddeng Daya, Mindoro, San Pedro and Cabaroan Daya. Vigan Empanada is similar to a thin taco that is fried to a crisp, with vegetable and meat fill-ing. Rice flour is used for making the crust or the shell. The galapong or rice flour dough is made a day before it is used. Atsuete or orange food color, salt and oil are mixed into the rice though. The dough mixture is then kneaded as thinly as possible on a banana leaf. Vigan Empanada’s vegetable filling is made up of green papaya that is grated, toge or mung bean sprouts, monggo or mung bean and shred-ded carrots. Its meat filing consist of whole egg and skinless Vigan longganisa.

Pinakbet Farm a small restaurant overlooking one of the tributaries of Meztizo River. Tables and benches are neatly arranged on a pavilion-type open-aired setting. Wood dominates the theme of the restaurant and with the breeze wafting in, it makes for a very rustic and pro-vincial ambience. On the left of the dining hall are fish pens set along the river. Pinakbet Farm

came about as tourism from Vigan City started to boom. Thinking of capitaliz-ing from the tourist run-off of its neighbor, the owner of Pinakbet Farm decid-ed to put up a restaurant that visitors would find unique and appealing.

Ilocos Sur is located along the western coast of Northern Luzon. It is bounded by Ilocos Norte on the North, Abra on the northeast, Mountain Prov-ince on the east, Benguet on the southeast, La Union on the south and West Philippine Sea on the west. Its area of 2,579.58 kilometres occupies about 20.11% of the total land area of Region I. the topography of Ilocos Sur is un-dulating to rolling with elevations ranging from 10 to 1,700 meters above see level.

Long before the Spaniards came to the Philippines, settlements already existed along the coves (locally known as the looc) in the northwestern part of Luzon. This region, then known as Samtoy (from sao mi ditoy or our lan-guage) was a progressive trading post familiar to the ancient Japanese, Chinese and Malay traders are renowned for its gold mines. These settlements, called the Ylocos, from Bagui (Ilocos Norte) in the north to Namacpacan (Luna, La Union) in the south were discovered during the expeditions led by Juan De Salcedo, grandson of the Spanish Conquistador Miguel Lopez de Legazpi, on June 13, 1572.

Salcedo established his headquarters in the settlement along the Mezti-so Ricer, and made it capital in his encomienda for services directly rendered to Spain. Salcedo’s territory included the provinces of Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, Abra and La Union. This capital, later known as Vigan, became the seat of the Archdiocese of Nueva Segovia in 1758, after it was transferred from Lallo, Cagayan Valley. Vigan was also Called as “Ciudad Fernandina” in honor of Prince Ferdinand, the son of King Philip od Spain.

The Spaniard’s effort to Christianize this whole region was never com-pletely successful owing to the abusive conduct of the Augustinian friars in-cluding the maltreatment done by government and military personnel which led to seveal uprising by locals (the Ylocanos). On February 2, 1818, a Royal Decree was signed splitting the Ylocanos into teo provinces: Ilcoos Sur and Ilocos Norte and also annexed Lepanto and Amburayan in Mountain Province (Cordilleras). Act 2683 passed in March 1917 by the Philippines Legislature defined the present geographical boundaries of Ilocos Sur.

In 1571, when the Spaniards conquistadors had established the Spanish City of Manila, they began looking for new centers of administrations to con-quer. Legaspi’s grandson, Juan de Salcedo, volunteered to lead one of these expeditions. Together with 8 armed boats and 45 men, the 22 year old voyager headed towards the north.

On June 13, 1572, Salcedo and his men landed in Vigan and then pro-ceeded towards Laoag, Curimao and Badoc. As they sailed along the coast, they were surprised to see numerous sheltered coves (“looc”) where the locals lived in harmony. Consequently, they named the region “Ylokos” and its peo-ple “Ylokanos”.

As the Christianization of the region grew, so did the landscape and bell towers in line with the Spanish mission of “bajo las campanas.” In the town plaza, it was not uncommon to see garrisons under the church bells. The colo-nization process was slowly being carried out.

The Spanish colonization of the region, however, was never completely successful. Owing to the abusive practices of many Augustinians friars, many Ilocanos revolted against their colonizers. Noteworthy of these were the Dingras uprising (1589) and Pedro Almasan revolt (San Nicolas, 1660). He died from an assassin’s bullet; his widow Gabriela continued the cause. Unfor-tunately, she too was captured and hanged. In 1807, the sugar cane (“basi”) brewers of Piddig rose up in arms to protest the government’s monopoly of the wine industry. In 1898, the church excommunicated Gregorio Aglipay for re-fusing to cut off ties the revolutionary forces of Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo. Unper-turbed, he established the “Iglesia Filipina Independiente.” Aglipay’s move-ment and nationalist sentiment it espoused helped restore the self-respect of many Filipinos.

In effort to gain more political control as a result of the increasing pop-ulation of the region, a Royal Decree was signed on February 2, 1818 splitting ilocos into two provinces: Ilocos Norte and Ilocos Sur. Soon thereafter, the provinces of La Union and Abra likewise became independent.
