WORTH A VISIT

Worth A Visit

Uyugan Rolling Hills

The large rolling grasslands, caressed by the morning haze, seem to be limitless to every side, providing a completely blank canvas on which to shoot the sunrise, which would start as a gentle pink horizon, and then change to a blazing orange line.
The hillsides are covered with traditional Ivatan houses that are aged with salt wind and have become a living museum of architectural strength and eternal style.
The low hills are perfect in long and relaxed walks that will enable the visitors to have a rest at the viewing platforms and enjoy the rhythmic sound of the waves as they collide against the cliffs beneath.
The local farmers sometimes walk the fields taking care of the potato crops which grow well in the high altitude soil, which is a little look at the agrarian life that builds Uyugan.
Travlers frequently testify about the experience of standing on a hill and feeling the great calmness of the Pacific that makes one feel as though he had been embraced by the Pacific, and his mind is opened as much as his body is.
It can be foggy in the hills depending on the time of the year, thus giving it a surrealistic, almost mystical ambience and making it ideal to take a stroll and contemplate.

Coastal Cliffs and Beaches

The theatrical cliffs border the shoreline and their steep sides are cut by the centuries of never ending surf, exposing geological formations, which narrate the history of the volcanic origin of the island.
There are undeveloped coves and the small beaches which have not been ruined by the development that give the opportunity to find some hidden location and immerse the toes into the transparent, turquoise waters in order to touch the chilly ocean wind.
Commercial infrastructure is not available, and it is necessary to act carefully and preserve the natural landscape, particularly visiting tide pools or cliff edges.
The cliffs are also important nesting places of the seabirds; early morning walks can provide sight of a group of flying gannets and terns fluttering over the blue horizon.
In adventure-loving people, cliff-side walks will offer a breathtaking view, with the wind whistling in the gullies and the horizon seemingly extending to the stars.
The cliffs become painted in gold and crimson in the evenings when the sunset sets a very expressive background that is calm and, at the same time, awe-inspiring.

Uyugan Church (San Vicente Ferrer Church)

The small, old-time church is a rock-like structure that is still there to remind of the Catholic heritage of the town and its stone front that has been worn almost impeccably, through centuries of prayer.
Within, the plain altar and the stained-glass windows are the manifestation of the local believers devotion, even now the pews are still resonating with the footsteps of the generations of people that have come to pray there.
The cemetery around is richly cut stone markers; they all give us a storey of the lives that used to ball between the sea and the hills.
Sunday masses are attended by the community members and hymns in Ivatan language blend with heart-throbbing prayers which create a very close-knit environment and appeal to travellers.
The austere courtyard of the church is the peaceful spot to meditate about the rhythms of the rural life and to enjoy the faint beauty that can emerge out of faith that is practised in unity with nature.
To cultural lovers, a self-guided tour of the church, shows murals and other objects that connect the past, present, and future of the spiritual heritage of Uyugan.

Barangay Villages

Every barangay is a living tapestry of traditional stone houses, each carved and laid out in their own unique way and following old time layouts, which emphasise on community integration and adaptation to the environment.
Visitors are usually welcomed into the homes of local families where they can experience a bit of Ivatan hospitality; which includes communal meals of fresh fish, root crops and home cooked bread that is made using love and simplicity.
The streets are not so busy, with the wood carriage or motorbike here and there, and it makes for a pleasant walk that allows a traveller to listen to the small beats of village life.
With the sun going down, community events are frequent around or around the village square, and people listen to music, dance, and tell storeys, and this makes a very colourful picture of the living culture.
The villages are also close to the hills, and this gives them easy hikes with easy access to viewpoints, where the lush landscape is clearly visible with the large ocean in the background.
Visitors, particularly during local fiestas or harvest holidays, can see the spirit of bayanihan in action as members of the community gather to design adornments, cook and organise the party.
