Breathtaking Batanes: UYUGAN (Philippines)

here’s another one on Batanes…

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” – Albert Einstein

Uyugan – the town that comprises the southeastern part of Batan island in the province of Batanes. It is said to be the municipality with the most ample intact stonehouses from among the 4 towns in Batan Island.

This very laidback town is as picturesque as the other Batanes towns. Both its landscape and seascape are truly delightful to the sense of sight. (FYI: “Uyugan” means place of flowing water).

What To See in Uyugan:

Uyugan Church, one of the smaller churches in Batanes that is dedicated to San Antonino de Florencia. They say, the church used to be pink in hue. But during the time if my visit, the color is now light yellow.
