I simply love the simplicity of this church. It looks massive on the outside. The views on the surrounding areas are just fabulous. The site is well maintained. Thank goodness it is not heavily promoted by the Philippines Department of Tourism. There was only one other visitor during my visit.

A restored Spanish-era Catholic church with NHC marker built a top of a hill thus offers a view of green terrain below. Becoming popular to tourists as a short stop destination for its historical architecture, hence can be a bit crowded on weekends/sundays and holidays. For true-blue Caths this is nice destination for the visita series; mass is in Ilocano tho; easily accessible from the main hi-way with limited parking space within church premises.

A must visit place!!

No doubt that this is a UNESCO heritage site. The old structure of the church is fascinating and gives you Spanish era feels. It is comparable to Macau's St. Paul Church. The area is large that we were not able to explore it. There's even medium-sized outdoor chapel at the church's entrance.
There are souvenir items and candles sold outside the church. There's also a tourist assistance desk where you can inquire.

I'm biased but yeah it's a beautiful church. One of the oldest and best I have ever seen. Plus my ancestors are the last ones to be buried in that church so it means a lot to me.

unlike most Spanish churches, this one would require you to climb up the top of a hill where it's located, and on one side you'd see a narrow road that leads to a cemetery. nevertheless, the place is nice especially if you're fond of visiting historical places

A UNESCO World Heritage site for a reason.

Beautiful old church constructed during part of Spain colony. Located at higher which exposed the beautil town of Sta. Maria. At the back will be the old ruins of another church.

Sta Maria Church is a church where people who appreciates history will be able to be interested in. The church is a 16th century Catholic church built to theoretically withstand earthquakes. Located on top a hill. This large masterpiece can be visited by opting for the famous stairs going there or simply take the road for your car to.yhe parking grounds beside the church.

If you stop by Sta. Maria, Ilocos Sur, you should not miss this church. It sits on top of a hill and the highest point of the town. The staircases to the church is wonderful to view. The red bricks are magnificent because it's really old. The stone pathways and the architecture have good patterns that'll make your photos amazing!

Baroque and UNESCO Church that solidifies both faith and belief. The site that endeared the Ilocanos to my heart and made me shed tears as a Catholic. I can walk that stairs to the aisle anytime. They badly need support as the roofs were destroyed a few years back and badly need repairs.

One of two Unesco Heritage churches in the north. It shows that religious practices have been deeply ingrained in the daily life of Filipinos dating back to the Spanish times. This beautiful church is a long lasting place of worship.
Both locals and balikbayans should not miss this when in Ilocos.
