Discover The Beauty Of Vigan 


If you're looking for a travel destination that represent history, culture, and unforgettable flavors, then Calle Crisologo in Vigan City, Ilocos Sur is the perfect place for you. This iconic cobblestone street, lined with centuries-old Spanish colonial houses, is not just a visual treat, it’s a journey back in time and a celebration of Filipino heritage. As a a proud resident of this beautiful and amazing city, I am excited to share the rich products and tourist spot of Vigan City, ilocos sur.

Walking through Calle Crisologo feels like stepping into a living museum. Horse-drawn carriages called kalesa still roam the streets, and the preserved architecture tells stories from over 400 years ago. 

No visit to Vigan is complete without trying our famous local delicacies, especially Vigan empanada and bagnet. The Vigan empanada has a crunchy orange wrap filled with green papaya or sometimes cabbage, egg, and the famous longganisa (Vigan native sausage). It is more delicious when dipped in vinegar or ketchup. The combination of flavors is something you won’t find anywhere else in the world. 


Another must-try is the bagnet, Vigan’s version of deep-fried pork belly. It's crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and absolutely delicious. Many tourists say it’s the best pork.

But what makes visiting Calle Crisologo truly “more fun” is the kindness of the people. Locals are always ready to share stories, offer recommendations, and welcome you with a smile. Whether you're shopping for handmade crafts, exploring heritage museums, or enjoying a street-side snack, you’ll feel the genuine hospitality that the Philippines is known for.

So if you're planning your next adventure, make sure Vigan City is on your list.
