Igorot Stone Kingdom

The newest tourist attraction when you visit Baguio City, Philippines. The park covering a 6,000-square meter area features the Igorot ingenuity in creating stone walls similar to the rice terraces in Battad, Banaue. Currently completing the final touches on the park on a mountainside along Long-long Road, Pinsao Proper village, owner Pio Velasco said "the whole concept is an Igorot child's fantasy of castles, his childhood in Mountain Province, the stories about the first Igorot people, man's belief that there is a caring God and culture of family brought out by the Igorot's skillful hands of stone laying." Among the main attractions at the stone kingdom is a tower that depicts the fantasy story of Gatan and Bangan, an Igorot man and woman who survived the great holocaust, a fertility stone tower, and a Kabunyan (Igorot God) tower. #localtravel #hiking #nationalpark #philippinestrip #philippinespride #baguiotrip #wanderlen
