Chavayan Village is one of the most charming and peaceful places in Sabtang Island, Batanes. Known for its traditional Ivatan stone houses with thick cogon roofs, the village feels like a step back in time. Surrounded by green mountains and close to the sea, it's quiet, clean and full of culture. Locals are warm and welcoming and you might even see Ivatan women wearing the traditional vakul headgear. It’s a great place to walk around slowly, take photos, and appreciate the beauty of simple island living.
