Spott3d: Bangui Windmills, Ilocos Norte
The Bangui Windmills of Ilocos Norte are actually wind turbines situated along the 3km stretch of Bangui Bay. It was built to generate clean energy from wind power. It supplies electricity in the local area as well as some provincial substations.
An hour from Laoag City, visiting this wind farm and seeing all 15 white gigantic fans each at 70 feet high would leave you in awe singing “Makisaya biyahe tayo…kakaiba ang Pilipinas” (Let us travel…and enjoy the Philippines’ uniqueness) in Regine Velasquez style. =)

What is Spott3d?
I just don’t know if this is true, Parang I read somewhere na mali ang positioning nito kaya hindi masyado maka generate ng electricity?

Hi, Ako ay taga Laguna at galing kami ng friends namin sa Pagudpud at dumaan sa Bangui para makita yong windmills. Maganda at kung ang katulad nito ay magagawa sa iba pang mga lugar, magiging malinis ang ating hangin at ang kureynte ay mumura pa. Punta kayo doon para magkape. Masarap ang kape doon na operated ng isang Swiss? Imagine di pinoy!
Ilocos Norte could be a good tourist spot. Ilocanos should promote their place. Malinis at napakaganda compared to some parts of the country that I went to.
