INTAYU AGRAGSAK KAKABSAT!


  Kannawidan Ilocos  comes from the word ''tawid". Its English translation means tradition, legacy and heritage. It marks the historic establishment of the province during Spanish times. It was first launched within the term of Deogracias Victor Savellano in 2008. It started to promote awareness and preservation of the local culture, tradition, heritage and customs. It was also an opportunity to showcase local products, artistry and craftmanship. Moreover, it was also created to boost the local tourism industry.


  During this event, representatives from the local government units (LGUs) that comprise the province compete in various events, including street dancing, beauty pageants and culinary competitions. Of course it would be extremely loud caused by the continuous beating of bass drums but it would be worth it to watch the dancers joyfully performing in the streets with their unique props and decorations. This event would require social interactions since a lot of people will participate. Might reconsider putting yourself in the crowd of people because the stench would be nasty due to the sweat that was caused by the hot temperature.


  During this event, different kinds of merchandise would be seen around Vigan, numerous stalls would pile up. You should consider having enough money to buy whatever you want either it would be accessories, antique items or local products that you can bring home as a memento of your experiences!
