Lasam Town Plaza and Grounds Municipal

The open space like the plaza is the central nervous system of the community members and farmers come to sell their produce and families come here over the weekend to picnic.
The name of the town is displayed on a big and sun-beaten wooden sign that stands at the entrance, welcoming the locals and tourists to learn about the history of the town.
In the distance, children are running around over the broken concrete and their laughter is deafening to the innocence and happiness that fills the vicinity.
It is a short storey about an old couple who are sitting on a folding chair and talking about the past and the wind is blowing through the loosely scattered palm leaves.
A small fountain at the middle of the plaza also brings a coolness on hot afternoons and it forms a cool break to the people passing by.
Lanterns are hung around the edges at night giving a warm effect making the plaza a meeting point in the evening to enjoy conversations and music.

San Vicente Ferrer Parish Church

It has a plain and yet elegant exterior and is painted white and has a sloping roof, which begs those who are curious and those who believe, to come in and experience the calmness of worship.
The altar is decorated with candles and local religious icons within, each having a storey of faith that spans the generations.
The bell tower of the church is a small structure, which sounds in the early mornings, summoning parishioners to praying and showing the beat of the day.
Locals hold relics, which are contained in a small sanctuary, back of the church, and are evidence to the long historical beginnings of their faith.
The adjacent cemetery, with its crumbling stones and vines, provides a cool spot to reflect and remember the ancestors.
Festivals are also a time when the church is adorned with flowers and banners making the church a canvas of pride and devotion amongst the people.

Rolling Hills and Farmlands

The mellow hills and valleys with irrigation canals across them show a tapestry of greenery, which varies with the seasons, yellow cornfields where once stood green rice paddies.
These hills are served by a web of dirt roads and cyclists and hikers are welcome to explore the hidden corners of the valley at their own speed.
During early mornings, mist covers the hills giving the atmosphere of a dream which is almost ethereal.
The fields are usually cultivated by local farmers, who often bring their livestock along and showcasing some of the oldest methods of agriculture, which have made the area to be what it is today in terms of agriculture.
The hills are a natural background to the sunrise photography where the horizon is tinted with a shade of pink and orange a sight that is soul-grabbing to the rural life.
The ones who come here are able to stop on a tiny outpost, take a deep breath of the fresh air and get a sense of belonging to the earth that supports the community.

Barangay Viewpoints

The hilltop of every barangay provides a panorama of rolled farmlands which extend to the horizon making the patchwork of colours created by the crops depending on the season.
The perspectives are usually bordered with fruit trees, including banana and mango, whose sweet smell mixes with the smell of the soil.
The children go out to play with the butterflies, and the local elders often sit together in these places and tell storeys, in an energetic and communal effect.
The tourists may buy homemade snacks at the local stalls and enjoy simple delicacies such as toasted corn or fresh coconut water.
The soft breeze passing over the view brings to it the sound of a neighbouring stream, and provides a good accompaniment to the picture.
When the sky darkens down to dusk, it becomes fiery orange, and lightens up the farmlands in the warmth that is ideal in sunset photography.

Riverside & Creek Spots

Lasam has small streams that wind across it, giving fresh, chilled water, which you can use to have a cool swim or have a quiet moment of reflection.
There are benches made of the local wood scattered throughout the banks on which visitors can be seated and observe families fishing with a bamboo rod.
The fog is produced by the water in the mornings giving the almost mystic atmosphere that tempts early-risers to come and find out.

In the corn fields, the farmers occasionally give visitors permission to harvest a few ears, which gives them a real-life and close experience of farm harvest.
The open plains are covered with long grass and few rocks and give the impression of the spaciousness and openness of the countryside of Cagayan.
The signage of every farm includes dates and varieties that are cultivated, which is educational to those who are interested in agricultural science.

Conventional Homes and Community Walks

A visitors to barangay streets can find traditional houses built of wood, bamboo and thatched roof, some centuries of local crafts.
The community walk discloses the reasons why houses are constructed to suit family and livestock and how this is a way of combining functionality and cultural identity.
The resourceful use of locally sourced materials is emphasised by simple furnishing inside, i.e. woven mats and stone basins.
The feeling of belonging is usually brought home by the fact that neighbourhoods are usually organised around the central plaza where the family share their meals.
Small stalls selling fresh produce, homemade sweets and local crafts cover the streets to give it a marketplace feel.
The low light in the setting sun passes through the bamboo lattices to cast dancing shadows that depict the close association between people and their surroundings.

CULTURE & TRADITIONS

Culture Traditions

The Ilocano culture that is mostly used is a mixture of Catholic religion and native custom, and thus, their festivals are characterised by processions, folk dances and communal feasts.
The value of coming together is seen in the daily practises of sharing work with the concepts of panagkakadua (unity) and bayanihan (mutual help).
Annual San Vicente Ferrer fiesta, which is normally organised on late April or early May, features processional prayers, live music, and various local delicacies that are inviting to the surrounding towns.
The dances of fiestas are usually directed by the use of many costumes and movements that are choreographed and reflect the historical accounts of the area.
Family takes centre stage in social life, the aged are honoured and young later learn to attend to communal rituals.
The local handicrafts are able to maintain the art of weaving and pottery making and they are able to produce handcrafted things that mirror the traditional culture of the area and also offer genuine souvenirs.

Food

The local cuisine is based on the fresh farm products with the main products like corn, rice, tobacco being used both in the daily meals and the offerings at the feast.
A breakfast favourite, "tinuno" is a grilled meat or fish dish flavoured with simple herbs, which reflects the local taste of freshness and simplicity.
The soup of local greens, such as dinengdeng or inabraw, bagoong (fermented shrimp paste) thickened, is an example of how the local folds can be used and the typical taste of Cagayan and its fondness of tangy.
Although less popular is the cup-shaped crispy pork known as bagnet, some restaurants still serve it and the meat is cooked with a combination of local spices to give it a crunchy and savoury flavour.
River fish, which are taken in local streams, is generally steamed, or grilled, with recently cut chilli pepper, and a squeeze of calamansi to add an invigorating zest.
The roadside eateries or small family owned carinderias are where one is better placed to experience the authentic dishes, as their menu is based on time expectations of the recipes that are passed down the generations.

Fun

The main attraction is rural sightseeing and photography, the untouched landscapes offer unlimited chances to take a photograph at sunrise over cornfields or a hazy valley at sunset.
A visit to the town plaza, the church, and the municipal grounds will be an immersion into the local culture that will reflect the lifestyle of the population, local market, and community practises.
Farm and local road exploration may be transformed into a mild adventure and one can learn more about the farming activities that keep the people alive.
The fiestas or barangay annuals are part of the must do events because they are a colourful combination of music, dancing, and communal feasting which showcase the local practises.
Having seen the ways of farming and cooking in a traditional manner, one is given the idea of how the community still uses its heritage of agrarian community in spite of the modernism.
To people who like to listen to the running water, rivers and creeks will provide a chance to go fishing with minimal effort or just sit back and listen to the flow of water, which is quite calming.

Fashion
