Be transported back in time in Vigan, Ilocos Sur

 Quick history lesson – did you know that the Philippines was colonized by Spain for more than 300 years? Their legacy lives on through the Roman Catholicism dominant in the country, as well as lovely colonial architecture. Nowhere is this more evident in the country than in wonderfully preserved Vigan, a UNESCO world heritage site. Hire a horse-drawn kalesa to take you around its cobblestoned streets, as you gaze up at the city’s mansions and churches.
