San Isidro, Nueva Ecija

Built in 1929, the Paez house is constructed of asana and yakal and did not use nails but only mechado (bamboo pegs) and tornillo pasante (screws). The house was occupied by Japanese officials during the war, as it was fronting the house of Epifanio de los Santos. The latter was used as the municipio, and was burned down during the war.

Sideco House

San Isidro, Nueva Ecija

While hiding from the Americans, Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo and his men resided in the Sideco House for over five months before fleeing to Isabela. With the general and his troops entrenched in San Isidro, the town became the capital of the Philippines at that time. It is also here where Governor General Wright and Col. Frederick Funston during the Filipino-American war stayed and planned the capture of the first President of the Philippine Republic, Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo.

Centuries-old brick walls of the Tabacalera in San Isidro remain as the symbol of the Novo Ecijano's pacification movement and one hundred years (1782-1882) of suffering when the province became the center of the so-called Tobacco Monopoly in Central Luzon when farmers were restricted to raise other crops.
