Batad is one of the most treasured as it is listed in UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Batad is located as well in Banaue well we all Filipino know that it is really a precious place to be taken care of until the end of time. Knowing that it is where the Rice Terraces are; it is considered as a symbol how early Filipinos showed their “BAYANIHAN”(Filipino term for helping each other). Every single person who we’re able to go here is definitely amazed of how the natives made this. The walls are made upd of mud and rocks considering the fact that more or less it was built roughly 2,000 ago.
These are all hand made; made of hands that are full of creativeness and full of hope. The view is really breathe taking. The clear sunrise when you’re on top of it gives you a sign of hope and beauty and the sunset that you will see gives you the sign that no matter what happen there will be another tomorrow. Traveling in is way different in any other places. It will not be a fancy trip for you.
Most people enjoys going here with their slippers on; or hiking shoes. It’s not gonna be a fancy city that you will go. No means of transportation so don’t expect that when you get tired you can ride a taxi (LOL ! ). It is more of appreciating what’s behind those mountains. It more of taking a look of the real rice terraces that you can see in a 1,000 Philippine Peso Bill. Though this tour will not only take you do that breathe taking. Get to see how the locals live their life differently in the city that you’re living right now.
One of the most very popular thing to do and place to go as well is the “Tapiya Falls”. Get ready to hike roughly about 40 mins. It will not be an easy trek tho, but of course you will be accompanied by a local tourist guide. By the time that you reach the Tapiya falls well then you can jump off to it’s 30 meter cold water considering that it is located in a mountain. Expect cold weather in Batad or Banaue.
