    Beautiful Cordilleras Mountains. Some history from Wiki:

    Igorot Revolt (1601)[edit]
    Main article: Igorot Revolt
    By order of the Governor-General Francisco de Tello de Guzmán an expedition was sent to the Cordillera region for religious conversion purposes with the aid of Padre Esteban Marin. Marin, the curate of Ilocos at that time, tried initially to convince the Igorots to convert peacefully to Catholicism. Marin allegedly even tried to create his own dictionary in the Igorot dialect to advance this cause.
    The Igorots, however, killed Marin and the Governor-General sent Captain Aranda with Spanish and Lumad foot soldiers. The revolt was short-lived as Aranda made use of extreme measures and executed them quickly to dispel the revolt in the Cordillera region.

    More, more pics! Sige pa, please?

    Did you do the cave connection in Sagada?

    The Igorots may have converted to Christianity (some did), but many still practice their tribal beliefs and animistic religion. I'm all for it - live and let live...

    So much of local culture was erased/eradicated by the Spaniards, in the colonization process... it's a pity.

    Didn't do the cave on that trip, but I will go back. So much to see in Luzon, well all of the Phils actually
