We are a bit disappointed because we were not able to see the inside of Burgos Museum..But luckily, I got the chance to see one of the more unique industries in Ilocos Sur. This jar making. It is called a burnay here and it made by hand with a real potter’s wheel. It turns out the knowledge of making the burnay comes from beyond the shores of the Philippines..To get here another tricycle from plaza (P10/pax). No Entrance fee.

| The factories had to be established in “Pagbantayan” (the old name of the barangay now called Pagburnayan) because of its accessibility to the rich clay deposits in Ayusan.. |
 |
 |
| Some of the unfinished pots.. |
 |
| Pots for sale... |
 |
 |
| Tools to use to make pots.. |
 |
| Let's try!! |
 |
| Burnay jars which are made of sand and fire-blasted in a huge kiln..And my final product.. |

And for our next stop, is the Hidden Garden if you are a flower and plant lover you shouldn't miss this place. It is located in one of the remote baranggays of Vigan, a gorgeous haven owned by an architect famous for his landscaping projects.
Lots of Love,
