Historic City of Vigan | Philippines


Postcard
According to UNESCO, Vigan is the best-preserved example of a planned Spanish colonial town in Asia. Dating back to the 16th century, Its architecture reflects the coming together of cultural elements from elsewhere in the Philippines, from China and from Europe, resulting in a culture and townscape that have no parallel anywhere in East and South-East Asia.
