Places that Polaris Can Take You 1: Patapat Viaduct

What is it A viaduct is a bridge composed of several small spans, derived from the Latin via for road and ducere to lead something. There are several viaducts in the Philippines but none of them compares to the breathtaking beauty of the Patapat bridge. Why go there A winding bridge that spans the foot of the  northernmost tip of the Cordillera Mountain Ranges, Patapat, around 1.2 kilometers long, is often referred to as the “French Riviera of  the North” probably because this lovely coastline reminds some people of its European counterpart. How to get there The Patapat viaduct is about 16 kilometers from Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte.  From Pagudpud, simply head northeast towards Cagayan.  This will take you through winding mountain roads that have lush vegetation on both sides and occasional views of the sea until you reach the patapat viaduct.
