Philippines Day 16 Vigan : Calle Crisologo – Crisologo Museum – Ruby Jar Factory – Dinner at Cafe Uno - Dancing Fountain


0500 – Reached Vigan. The bus stopped just near to our booked hostel, Henady Inn. After we leave our backpacks in that Inn, we rest and sleep at the nearby 7-11 since our check in time is 2pm.

0700 – Walked to the Plaza in the Vigan City to have the breakfast. Then walked along the Calle Crisologo to feel the fusion of European and Asian Architecture building. The motorized vehicles are not allowed on this street and Calesa are allowed. There are not much people in the early morning and not many stalls opened. First, we went into the tourism information center to understand which place can we go. After walked along the Calle Crisologo, we visited the Crisologo Museum. There have no entrance fee but donation only. There is not much information but the ancient furniture and the thing used by the owner of this museum building.

1000 – Next, we walked to the Partas terminal so as to book the bus to Baguio. However, there is no reservation for the daytime bus. It is first come first serve. Then we just enquiry for the time departure from Vigan city to Baguio. After we just walked around and find any other bus terminal that provide bus service to the Baguio. It is only Partas company provide the bus to Baguio. When finding the other bus terminal, we also visited the Ruby Jar Factory which is just like a plain jar factory. The jar is dark red color but not that ruby. It is normal to me. Then, we will just stay in one of the hypermarket and waited for the lunch time. Around 1pm, we just walked back to the inn. After checked in, we were just rest and sleep inside the room.
