Spott3d: Vigan Heritage House, Calle Crisologo, Vigan

Vigan Heritage Houses, Calle Crisologo

The Heritage Village of quiet Vigan was institutionalized as part of the UNESCO World Heritage List November of 1999. It was valued for preserved architectural and landscape design which embodied a unique fusion of Asian design and European architecture of a trading town during the 18th century Spanish colonial times.

These centuries-old heritage houses line both sides of the cobblestoned half-kilometer stretch of Calle Crisologo (Crisologo Street). Currently a famous tourism site, most of the ground floors of these ancestral houses are made into shops of Vigan furniture and souvenirs.
