Nueva Vizcaya, Province in Cagayan Valley, Philippines

Nueva Vizcaya spans 4,813 square kilometers of mountainous terrain between the Cordillera range to the west and Sierra Madre mountains to the east.

The Spanish colonizers established the province in 1839 through Governor General Luis Lardizabal's guidance, with the first religious settlement dating back to 1609.

The province houses 18 distinct indigenous groups, including the Ifugao, Gaddang, and Dumagat tribes, each maintaining their traditional practices and languages.

Transportation within Nueva Vizcaya relies on public utility jeepneys and tricycles, while major roads connect the province to neighboring regions.

Nueva Vizcaya produces significant quantities of citrus fruits, particularly pomelo and oranges, making it a notable agricultural center in northern Philippines.
