Cagayan, Administrative province in northeastern Luzon, Philippines

Cagayan province extends along the northeastern coast of Luzon island, encompassing 9,003 square kilometers between the Pacific Ocean and Cordillera mountains.

Spanish colonization of Cagayan began in 1581, leading to the establishment of important mission posts in Camalaniugan and Lallo during the 16th century.

The province maintains deep agricultural traditions with rice cultivation methods passed through generations while supporting populations of Ilocano and Ibanag communities.

Multiple daily flights connect Manila to Tuguegarao Airport, while buses operate regular services from Manila via the Maharlika Highway.

The Cagayan River, Philippines' largest waterway, flows through the province's fertile valley, creating extensive agricultural lands for food production.
