 Agdindinamag ti ili a Paoay gapu kadagiti adu a banag iti sakupna. Adda dagiti daan a pasdek. Nauneg ken napateg ti pakasaritaanna, mabasa man iti internet ket iti historia.

Iti panagbakasionmi idiay ilimi a Sinait iti nagbaetan ti Oktubre 24 ken Nobiembre 20, maysa ti Paoay a pinasiarmi idi Nobiembre 15, 2012. Kaduami da kasinsin Letty, Allan, Isagani ken Lucia. Ni Jim nga asawa ni Mercy ti nagmaneho.

Impasiarnakami ti security officer A. F. Antonio. Segun ken ni Antonio: Nabangon ti Malacanang of the North idi 1976; limned a barangay ti dan-aw.

Paoay was derived from the phrase, “makapaway kami”, which literally means, “We can live alone”. When the early settlers were frequently attacked by the “tirongs”, they were forced to move eastward. In their new settlement site, they discovered that they have neighbors, now Batac town. Believing that the tirongs are still a threat to them, their neighbors convinced them to seek refuge in their place. The settlers begged off, and bravely replied, makapaway kami! Through the passage of time, the place was eventually and permanently called Paoay.

“Considered the Legendary Town of Ilocos Norte, it remains as it is because of the awesome gigantic structure of the Paoay Church built by the Augustinian monks in the 17h century. Its architectural design is the blending of the east and west making it one of the best churches built in the century.

“The lake nearby which draws special interest among historians for it was once a progressive town populated by advanced and scientifically gifted civilization but disappeared in the twinkle of an eye, as the legend goes, because of their evil desires. The now famous Paoay Lake was the exact location of the said community.

“Paoay also the seat of government where the Malacañang of the North is situated overlooking the legendary lake, where former President Marcos attends to his duties when visiting the province. Paoay is famous for its finely craft-woven inabel.

“Paoay home of the Paoay Church. UNESCO World Heritage Site. Don Martin Guiang first and founding leader.

Ditoy met la naputarmi ti ababa a daniw:

ADDA KINADAEG TI LANGIT DITOY

Ditoy, napno ti kinadaeg a pakasaritaan
Lakasa  ti gameng iti namsek a kinaindaklan
Ni Ilokano, samtoy a namunganayan
Ti lagip ken pakasaritaan ti reyenda ti inna panagturay
Pasdek a napno iti pakasaritaan dagiti panawen
Ti gubat, ti kappia, ti progreso ken dur-as
A panaglupos ken panagbaliw ti rupa ti pagilian
Iti Baro a gimong ken baro a pakasaritaan
Ti man Amianan, Abagatan, laud ken daya
Iti di mabilang a summit meeting
Kadagiti teddek ken naindaklan
A tulbek ti turay

Iti sangalubongan.
