Today was a fantastic day! I finally visited one of the UNESCO inscribed terraces the Hapao and Poblacion clusters in Hungduan. There are five and they can all be found in Ifugao Province. And the cluster in Banaue poblacion is not one of them!
It was a one and a half hour ride from the Banaue town proper to the Hapao Terraces in Hungduan. Then from there, we motored to the Hungduan Terraces in the Poblacion. We were welcomed by the mayor and other city officials. Lunch was served in front of the municipal hall.
Before proceeding back to the hotel, we then proceeded to an ethnic village where we donated P200 for kids to a plant tree in our name. The donation goes to the education of the kids. Dinner was at a campsite in Banaue. More details to follow in my blog.
