Nueva Vizcaya

Nueva Viscaya is located in the North Central part of Luzon in Region 2. It is surrounded by notable Mountain Ranges such as the Sierra Madre on the East, Caraballo on the south, and Cordillera on the West. The province has several principal rivers: Magat, Matunmarang, Sta. Fe and Santa Cruz. All these rivers are tributaries of the Magat River which flows into the Cagayan River. The province is bounded on the North and Northeast by the province of Ifugao and Isabela, on the East and Southeast by Quirino and Aurora, on the South by Nueva Ecija, and on the West by Benguet and Pangasinan. The province is taken as one Congressional district and has 15 municipalities and 274 barangays. Bayombong is the provincial capital, while Solano and Kayapa are its Commercial and summer capital. The province has basically an agricultural economy with commerce, trade and industry contributing to its growth and development. Among other major economic activities are farming and cattle and swine raising. Primary crops are palay and corn. Minor crops are root crops, vegetables, and fruits. The province produces quality onions and vegetables often sold in Metro Manila. Oranges and mangoes are now major crops being exported to Asian countries. The early settlers of this province were used to be the ethnic groups of the Ilongots, Igorots, Ifugaos, Isinais and Gaddangs. But the influx of civilization and the infusion of modern technology to the lifestream of the province induced many immigrants from the adjacent provinces, primarily Ilocanos, Tagalogs, Pangasinenses, Kapampangans, among others. Nueva Viscaya can be a new alternative destination for outdoor and environmental enthusiast. The province has several prominent rivers, which could offer a venue for water sports. Its 70% forestland provides wild adventures into the Woods. The Mountain ranges of Sierra Madre, Caraballo and Cordillera Mountains render an excellent place for mountaineering and trekking.
