The City of Vigan (Ilokano: Ciudad ti Bigan; Tagalog: Lungsod ng Vígan) is a third class city and capital of the province of Ilocos Sur in the Philippines. The city is located on the western coast of the large island of Luzon, facing the South China Sea.
It is a World Heritage Site in that it is one of the few Hispanic towns left in the Philippines where its structures remained intact,
and is well known for its cobblestone streets and a unique architecture that fuses Philippine and Oriental building designs and construction, with colonial European architecture.
