Day 2: Vigan Tour

After our lunch at Café Uno, we started our tour in Pagburnayan Jar Making. If you are going to Vigan do not miss this place, it’s really nice to see how they mold and shape the clay into jars, vases and pots. It looks so easy but I know that it’s difficult.



Crisologo Museum: donations only.


Syquia Mansion: P20 entrance fee, another place that you should not miss is Syquia Mansion. Dami ko natutunan dito, if there’s no tour guide I will not appreciate it because I’m just seeing old furniture and pictures. But because there’s a tour guide, I understand and appreciate each piece of furniture and house details, things that I have not learned in History class.


Vigan Loam Weaving – I’ve seen this before in Baguio.


Baluarte no entrance fee, I’ll make a separate post for this.


Bantay Church and Bell Tower: donations only


And our last stop Calle Crisologo, it is included in my top ten places that I want to visit. You can ride kalesa, P50 for one round (isang ikot lang). We’re here past 4PM and hinintay talaga naming gumabi para sa picture. 


End of our tour

    Hey Mich! As I said I am eyeing for your Vigan post. Seemed you had a great time in Vigan with your family. We could have met sana for a bloggers' meet-up and I could have toured you around too. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed Ilocos!

    God Bless You!

    I must return to Vigan. I visited it when I was still in highschool. I missed that jar-making place and the night shots at Calle Crisologo.

    Calle Crisologo!!!Matagal na kong inlove dyan sa Heritage site na yan. I've never been to Vigan before pero hopefully before the year ends mapuntahan ko na sya. Pagudpud, Vigan, Bagui Windmills, Kapurpurawan rock are some of my target places din pag pumunta dyan.
