Naguilian La Union

Originally part of Pangasinan, the town of Naguilian is known for its basi (sugarcane wine) making industry. Its name is derived from the Iloko word "Nag-ili-an", which means the place where people from other places come to stay. "Nag" is a prefix which denotes past action, "Ili" means town and "an" is a word which modifies the word �ili�. Putting the three together, it becomes "NAGILIAN". This was later modified as NAGUILIAN.
