A must see for anyone visiting northern Ilocos, this church is a National Cultural Treasure. Iglesia de San Agustín de Paoay is one of a kind.

HIT! Take in the very picturesque Paoay Church , a UNESCO World Heritage site . View the buttresses from the right side (when facing the church ). Can't miss this!

Beautiful old church located in Paoay, Ilocos Norte. It has coral stone bell tower and is part of the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Its one of the oldest church in Ilocos and part of the Philippine History. I'm glad I saw it personally. This place is wonderful.

MUST VISIT: It's definitely one of most beautiful baroque churches in the Philippines . No wonder UNESCO declared it as one of it's World Heritage Sites .

A historical and architectural landmark of the Ilocos region. Many come here for photo shoots.

The church is amazing. But inside its just typical catholic church .

Grab an Empanada at a nearby snack store while enjoying the view of Paoay Church . Night lighting is superb! :)

Don't miss cafe and restaurant in front of the church .

After visiting this classical architecture , also check out the Paoay Lake .

The bell tower of the church , which is made of coral, stands stoically a few meters away and was used by revolutionaries as an observation post. Read more

It's better to visit this church in the afternoon as it faces the west.

A UNESCORTED heritage site that has been through an earthquake. It is in an ok shape considering that

The building of this church was started in 1694 and was only completed 1710. The church has been declared as one of the UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE

Worthy to be a heritage site..

Built in 1593. One of the historical churches you must visit in Ilocos! :)

Worthy to be included as a heritage site

Attend the afternoon mass and wait for the sunset . Overwhelming && breathtaking view :)

Enigmatic. Picturesque. Dropby herencia and try eating the pinakbet pizza .
