The centers of the old towns are usually dominated by the church. Get the chance to visit this place and marvel at the Spanish-inspired architecture.
This is the bell tower of the St. William’s Cathedral. And it was built about 80 meters from the church! The reason? Just in case an earthquake hits the area, the bell tower would not topple down on the church! Another thing to be noted is the name of the bell tower. Yes, its continually sinking.
Quite a scenic place with the lake dominating the scene.
This is a really special church with impressive architecture and massive buttresses. Don’t leave Ilocos Norte without seeing this church!
Or Malacanan Ti Amianan in the Ilocano language. Yup, this used to be the resthouse of a former president during his heyday.
This is really a resort located in a vast open space. You can take a peek of this complex and marvel at the architecture. Or you can opt to spend your night and throw some money unto a gambling table.
Unless the remains of the former president has been transferred, a visit to this place can give you some surreal experience. Reality bites - everybody, no matter how strong or popular, has to finally be laid to rest.
Whole Day Hire a jeep for a swim in any of the following:
Ideal to get that great tan and spend the rest of the day swimming and snorkeling. There are also resorts here so you can check-in should you wish to spend the night here.
Actually, there is a beach area right at the edge of this desert. So swimming can be an option.
