Tourism

The famous Governors Rapid can be found in Maddela, in the Barangay of Divisoria Sur. It gained fame and attracted tourists after it was featured on Rated K of ABS-CBN along with the Siitan Nature Park in Nagtipunan, one of the Municipalities of Quirino Province.

Maddela is also known for its festival, the Panagsasalog. It is an Ilocano term for "farmers on their way to farm". The Panagsasalog Festival is celebrated annually on July 10–12. The festival is also celebrated with the Search for Mutya ng Maddela along with some contests. On the last day, there is a parade of the reigning pageant winners, municipal officials, and barangay officials and with the drum and lyre corps of the near elementary and high schools.
