Nueva Segovia Local legend has is that Vigan got its name from a simple communication breakdown. A Spaniard walking along the Meztizo river apparently met a local and asked what is the city’s name. Not understanding what he was being asked, but seeing that the Spaniard seemed to be pointing to a tree, replied “bigaa apo” (a giant Taro plant that was common in the area) It is from the word “Bigaa” that Vigan is said to have derived its name
