Banaue Ifugao (In Photos)


The northern trip I hoped for didn’t go well as planned  early on with the trip. But the instant I hopped onto that bus bound to Kiangan, Lagawe, and eventually to Banaue, all my worries were swept away, quickly forgotten all the ill-related consequences of not researching well-enough, despite the fact that we had to squat for most part of the trip due to the lack of seats. 

The chilly mountains bathed in dews were largely welcoming with the ultimate rural feel (birds singing, clouds rolling, and so on), the wildest one you could ever imagine, as we crawled our way to that winding road that caused us that crazy rollercoaster ride. And just right before the sun fully comes out to its full form, we arrived at the drop-off point where we quickly registered and broke the fast at a nearby food stall, before roaming around their highly-praised landscape. And of course, capture some of those wondrous moments that features the indescribable gift of nature they unlimitedly enjoy.
