Lumang Gapan (Little Vigan)
About
Nueva Ecija's own Calle Crisologo! Lumang Gapan is a short stretch of cobblestone streets lined with restored Spanish and American-era ancestral houses and old-style street lamps, which is why everyone calls it Little Vigan. Stroll it late in the afternoon when the houses glow gold, then walk over to the old Three Kings Parish Church and the town plaza nearby!
