Balay Radrillo
Decorated with bricks or radrillo, this beautiful two-story house is typical of colonial Philippines when the Spanish Crown still lorded over the islands. Today, a number of Ilocano homes, both old and new, still use bricks as a decorative element. This home also flaunts the beauty of several native building materials.
Balay Batac
A grand structure with beautiful, intricate stained windows, Balay Batac is a reflection of Ilocano architecture – that it can be grand and austere at the same time. This two-story home has large windows and spacious bedrooms with king-size beds. It has its own little garden to its left, with Plaza Manzanilla just a few steps from its doorstep. Several paintings adorn its walls and like other homes inside the heritage village, all the furniture are vintage Ilocano.
balay dingras
Balay Dingras is a spacious Ilocano home with a large porch typical of Spanish-era architecture. This structure has several pockets of green and a not-so-secret garden with fountains in its backyard. Balay Dingras is among the simpler houses inside Sitio Remedios showcasing Ilocano austerity and their penchant for making every little bit of space count.
