Ilocos Sur is known for it's culture and history. As a result, today's youth experienced the historical story behind those great contributions of our local heroes like Diego Silang- the Brave Man who led bloody revolt, and his wife, Gabriela Silang; Elpidio Quirino- first Ilokano President; and Vicente Singson Encarnacion- one of the 7 wise men.
It is also known for the tourist spots not only nationally but, also internationally. UNESCO World Heritage City of Vigan is one of the best tourist spots in Ilocos Sur. And up to now, Vigan has been one of the contingent for New7Cities Wonders. Another is the Bessang Pass Marker, which punctuates the last stands of Japanese Soldiers and others.
Many agricultural products( One Town, One Product) also can be discovered in every municipalities in Ilocos Sur. We have Empanada in Vigan, Ladek in Bantay, Basi in San Ildefonso, etc.
Ilocos Sur can be a world class home of heroes and fame. This can truly be called Pride of Ilocos Sur!
