Hi, this is regarding a line in your article saying that you didnt realize that the Syquias had a base in Vigan. Just to share, the wife of our sixth president, Elpidio Quirino (who was born in Vigan) was named Alicia Syquia and they used to reside in the Syquia Mansion before the 2nd world war :)

[...] Some of the stores sell antiques and reproductions (passed as the real deal; so be careful), but you can chance upon a real steal and go home with a treasure for a reasonable price. [...]

Usisa, I hope this info is not too late. I would recommend the Vigan Plaza Hotel. It is very near Calle Crisologo and their restaurant serves very good bagnet pakbet.

Rizal I think the sand dunes is near fort ilocandia…I theeeenk..

Nang, from Laoag we took teh bus to Vigan and got there around 7pm. We stayed at the Pastoral Center at the back of the Archibishop’s palace. At 8pm we walked up and down the cobbled stone streets of Calle Crisologo but it was dark and silent. It was creepy in other words. What surprised me was that a small jeep was parked on the “famous” street and I thought it was bawal talaga.
