It is there Town Plaza early in the morning |
It's a nice weather when I got there. Also, there's a lot of town folks doing
their morning routine running/jogging along the street.
So then after I take some photos I need to take a breakfast you know.
In Bangued they also have McDonald's and Jollibee it's only near in the town plaza so it's not
that hard to find.
If you go here at Bangued the fare for their tricycle is 10php per person only where ever you go.
I repeat 10pesos only hehe if you want you can give a tip and they are happy to have you in their town.

At the front of their town plaza
"Saint James the Elder (Bangued) Cathedral" |
On April 5, 1617, Bangued was created as a ministry by the Augustinian Recollects under the Diocese of Nueva Segovia. The construction of the church was started in 1722 and was completed in 1807. During the feast of Saint James the Greater, Bangued was proclaimed as the capital of Abra on July 25, 1861. After the Philippine Revolution in 1898, the secular clergy took over.
The Tree's damage the view the picture was taken with my phone oppo f1 so it's not that good.
Soon I will practice my photoshoot skills my bad.
