The Breathtaking Bangui Wind Farm, Ilocos Norte
Bangui Wind Farm is a mandatory tourist hotspot for those visiting Ilocos Norte. It's located along the shoreline adding more artistic appeal to the farm's picturesque view.
An ecological magnificence
Aside from the breathtaking view of Bangui itself and the windmills, it's awesome to just imagine the process of transforming wind's energy to a usable electrical energy. It's an attempt for sustainability, and it feels great to witness this magnificence.
It was on our way back from Pagudpud beach (read more) when we decided to drop by Bangui Wind Farm all for the love of nature. Actually, we were supposed to visit this on our way to Blue Lagoon of Pagudpud, but it rained hard so we just let it go that time. Fortunately, the weather was all sunny the day after, perfect for Bangui!
Depending on which part of the entire stretch, you may come across some stores serving refreshments such as the photo below. It's a great spot to chill with a fascinating view of the sea.
Of course, with this internet age, everyone wants to get a good shot of the wind mills both for personal storage and for showing off in the the social networks. Not complaining, though. It may, in fact, raise awareness to push for renewable sources of energy, fingers crossed.
The Bangui Wind Farm is also great for those who want to practice photography. All angles are very interesting to explore, as the entire area is filled with breathtaking elements.
With air so clean due to presence of multiple greens, you'll get a clear view of the skies including the adorable fluffiness of the clouds. In fact, we were able to capture this during our group photo taken here in Bangui Wind Farm itself.
