St. Augustine Church: Paoay's Pride




Most impressive in Ilocos Norte is the St. Augustine Church in Paoay. This 17th century Church is unique because of its combination of Gothic, Baroque and oriental designs. St. Augustine Church facade is so far the most impressive that I have seen among the old churches in the Philippines.

The local and provincial government have ensured that the Church and its surroundings are well maintained. There are is fact plans for further development and improvement of the place. At night, the Church is beautifully lit and makes for a real world class attraction.
