The plaza is a landmark tribute to Father Jose P. Burgos, one of the three Filipino martyr priests who were executed by the Spaniards for espousing church reforms. The plaza is flanked by St. Paul's Cathedral and the old "seminario" (seminary), which was burned down in 1968. Plaza Burgos in Vigan Ilocos Sur is a favorite promenade for local folks and tourists, given its ambiance, and the line of kiosks offering local delicacies.
