“KANNAWIDAN”
Ilocos Sur is a beautiful province
located in the northern part of Luzon. This province is rich in culture that
represents the ancient Spanish and Filipino heritage. The locals conceived a
festival that highlights these cultural traditions and they called it “KANNAWIDAN FESTIVAL”
It was celebrated from the last
week of January up to the first week of February. On the opening day there is usually a mass held at St. Paul metropolitan cathedral. Then it was followed by a procession of the 40 patron saints in different parishes and the image of Jesus Christ and Virgin Mary around the city.
A food festival was also help at Plaza Salcedo. There is fireworks display after the meal, lightning up the sky with a million colorful specks and flashes.
