Welcome to The Ylocos Heritage

Welcome to The Ylocos Heritage!

It has been observed that due to the modern life and technology, the Ilocano, especially the youth, already ignoring their heritage, and gradually forgetting it. Due to commercialization and sometimes politics, built as well as natural heritage were being demolished. Some people do not value these tangible and intangible things that inherited to us by our old folks and some people do not appreciate its importance.

But, if we try to continue ignoring its value, we will lose everything. Future generations will have no references of the past. Old folks might blame these children of not following on what they’ve believed and of not preserving on what they’ve built for us.

This site was created to promote the Ilocano heritage. It will feature, of course, the culture, tradition and the built and natural heritage and other features found in Ilocandia.

Everybody is welcome to share their thoughts, knowledge and ideas regarding the Ilocano heritage. May this will serve as an inspiration to the people to promote and preserve our legacy….
