Things To Do in SAGADA, MOUNTAIN PROVINCE in 2 DAYS STAY






THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT SAGADA

  •  Sagada is about 4-5 hours away from Baguio.
  • It is located at Mountain Province
  • This place is known for its World's Famous Hanging Coffins
  • From Manila, take a Bus going to Baguio, then from there ride a Bus directly going to Sagada.

                                         1. SAGADA HANGING COFFINS
         Hanging coffins are an ancient funeral custom of some ethnic groups like here in Sagada. Coffins of various shapes were mostly carved from one whole piece of wood. The Coffins are mostly located at the rocky side of the mountains.


                        
                                  2.  SPELUNKING IN SUMAGUING CAVE

Sumaguing cave is the most popular  cave in town. I don't know the exact depth but it is one of the deepest cave in the Philippines. The Stalagmites & the Stalactites inside, formed million years ago was amazing. There's a lot of stories behind different rock formation based on our tour guide. Be careful when you are going inside, because the rocks are slippery & some are sharp. If you want to wear gloves, buy different kind of those in the market. For me,this is the most adventurous place here in Sagada, it takes us more or less 2 hours of spelunking including picture taking.

                      3. SUNRISE & SEA OF CLOUDS IN KILTEPAN VIEW

Kiltepan is known as the best location to view the Sunrise and the Sea of Clouds which is 10-15 minutes away from the town proper. Nowadays, this place is getting crowded. That day, we arrived at 5:30 in the morning, unfortunately we didn't encountered the sunrise because the sun was blocked by fogs & clouds. But that's okay. the sea of clouds above the Rice Terraces and  Lake Danum was Amaaazing! Just bring Jacket because of very cold temperature.



              4. ST. MARY THE VIRGIN EPISCOPAL CHURCH &  OTHER ACTIVITY 
                                                           IN ECO-VALLEY

                This is the main Church in Sagada, but you might surprise because there's a big church in a small town. According to the guide, this structure is built by American Missionaries. If you want to attend the mass during your vacation, here's the schedule :
                             Daily Service    : 6:30 AM
                             Sunday Mass   : 6:30 AM
                             Sung Mass      : 8:30 AM
                          Sunday School  : 8:30 AM






                                         5. UNDERGROUND RIVER
                  The river inside the cave has a super cold water. You must bring flashlights to see the surrounding  because it is very dark inside.
