This Iloilo heritage travel guide moves like a real walk—river breeze first, then old downtown shadows, Calle Real details, a heritage house stop, and a museum anchor—so you can do a meaningful DIY day without rushing.
Dawn in Iloilo smells like fish, rain on concrete, and coffee in chipped mugs. By evening, it’s garlic sizzling in pans, talaba on ice, and batchoy broth still simmering somewhere in La Paz. This market-to-plate Iloilo day follows Mika through public markets, carinderia kitchens, and the Iloilo River Esplanade—showing how Iloilo fresh flavors move from basket and kilo to steaming bowls and grilled platters you can actually order yourself.
