f one wants to get away from the hustle and bustle and everyday stresses of the ever-growing Bangued, one must visit Tayum.
Tayum, named after the indigo plant which was locally abundant in early colonial times, is located east of the capital town Bangued. It was founded in 1725 and was annexed as a barrio of Bangued in 1903 until 1907.
Nothing much has changed in this small town in spite of its proximity to Bangued. However, if there's one thing Bangued should learn from Tayum, it is the fact that Tayumeños know how to preserve their heritage specifically their built heritage.
This video opens up with glimpses of a miniature replica of the town, a skating rink (which became a fad in early 1990s) and the monument of General Antonio Luna then culminates with a dramatic view of the largest church in Abra, Santa Catalina de Alejandria Church. Truly in Tayum, time does stand still.
