Vigan; a poet's dream

Pin It
Before I take you to Ilocos Norte, let me show you some of the pictures that I'd taken in Vigan.

Old telephones and an electric fan adorned the counter of the reception area


Old clocks and stereo

Syquia Mansion





Bathroom


The kitchen


Hidden Garden

A charcoal painting of a girl that might as well been me (hehe...)


Wash your hands before you eat


The Praying Area


Wishing well




As instructed I didn't touch it (LOL)

  2. Thanks for reading. To answer your question take any jeep or FX from Aurora Blvd that goes to Taft or Quaipo. Those PUVs pass by España. Just tell the driver that you are putting off at UST corner Lacson St. It should be easy when you finally get to España. Cross the intersection and keep on the right side. You can just walk your way to Earnshaw St. (corner Lacson St.) where the Florida terminal is. Hope this helps, enjoy your trip :)

    Vigan seems to be a lovely place, but having no beaches, I don't appreciate it that much. Though I might find myself disagreeing with myself someday re this opinion....
