Ilocos Sur especially
Vigan is branded as the Heart of Ilocandia by the Philippine Historical
Committee. It’s a province very rich in culture and heritage. Kannawidan means
traditions and this province got to showcase all what she has.
Ilocos sur has rich heritage and unique culture. However, there is a need to preserve. With this in
mind, the provincial government of Ilocos Sur has conceived a festival that
highlights these culture and traditions and attract local and foreign tourist
as well. Dubbed the Kannawidan Ylocos Festival, it is also a commemoration of
the anniversary of Ilocos Sur as province. Kannawidan has really lived up
to its mission and vision: preserving and perpetuating the rich Iloco cultural,
artistic, historical and intellectual heritage. Kannawidan gatherings have
always been a venue for Ilocanos, relations and friends, sharing and exchanging
thoughts, views and insights on how to preserve and perpetuate the beautiful
customs and traditions.
May this continue and we,
Ilocanos must work as one in the spirit of unity, to love our own culture and
arts. We must be done these things always, not only during festivals. Ilocos
Sur is an amazing, wonderful, magnificent place! Be proud you're an Ilocano!
