Ilocos Sur is one of the many beautiful provinces in our country. It is located in the northern part of Luzon. It is known for its historic sites, beaches and the well preserved Spanish Colonial City of Vigan. There's an annual festival here called the Kannawidan festival which highlights some of the cultural traditions of the Ilocanos.
Kannawidan Festival lasts for 2 and a half weeks, from the last week of january to february's 1st and half weeks. For this year's celebration I can count the time i went to Kannawidan with just the fingers of my hand but even though I only went for a few times I must say that I was stunned of how beautiful our cultural really is. I've got to see a lot of displays on the trade fair that each of municipalities here in Ilocos Sur has prepared and with those displays I've got to know more about the different municipality our province has. This event is both knowledgeable and fun for some artists have come to entertain the Ilocanos. This proved that Kannawidan Festival is such a cool event an ilocano must attend once in his life.
Through this festival talents are shown off. The beauty of our province was also shown off but but what is more important is that this possible created a strong bond among Ilocanos.
