Top 20 Must-See Tourist Spots in Ifugao 2019 Ifugao is world-renowned for its majestic Banaue Rice Terraces. These man-made structures signify the brilliant and ancient engineering skills of the Ifugao people. If connected from one end to another, these terraces can span halfway around the globe. But more than these earthen masterpieces, Ifugao also boasts of other eco-cultural wonders. In fact, the rice terraces are just icing to what Ifugao could potentially offer. As usual, many of the spots I included are off-beaten. This means that they are unspoiled by the impacts of mass tourism. It is my hope that showcasing them would lead to sustainable management. This will not only sustain the natural environment and protect local culture but also promote community-based development. Now, here are the top 20 must-see tourist spots in Ifugao. 1.

IFUGAO The Ifugao is a group that lives in a mountainous region of north-central Luzon around the of town Banaue. Also known as the Ifugaw, Ipugao, Yfugao, they are former headhunters who are famous for their spectacular mountain-hugging rice terraces. The Ifugao are believed to have arrived from China around 2000 years ago. Their first contact with the outside world was through American military officers and schoolteachers early in the 20th century. Communication with them was made easier when better roads were built to the areas where they live. In the past the Ifugao were feared head-hunters, just as other tribes in the mountainous regions of northern Luzon. Their war-dance (the bangibang) is one of the cultural remnants of the time of tribal conflict. This dance is traditionally held on the walls of the rice terraces by the men, equipped with spears, axes and wooden shields and a headdress made of leaves. Ifugao name means "inhabitant of the known world."...

Ifugao History Precolonial age Prior to colonization, Ifugao was a massive highland plutocracy, among the most sophisticated and prosperous of its kind in the whole archipelago and one of the two grandest highland plutocracies in Luzon, the other being the Plutocracy of Kalinga. The state existed for over 2,000 years and have built massive rice terraces that would be a symbol of the province in later time. There were no monarchs in the state. The state was ruled by its council of elders which led the state into a peaceful and prosperous plutocracy which developed one of the best agricultural technologies in Asia at its time. The state consisted of various subgroups which had similar yet somewhat distinct culture and traditions. Conflicts among the Ifugao people were resolved in the most peaceful way possible. Unlike most of the highland plutocracies in the Cordilleras at the time, the Plutocracy of Ifugao had the least conflict with lowland settlers. Kiangan was known as the bi...

Headdress, Ifugao Tribe, Philippines Description: This head-dress comes from the Ifugao people in Luzon, northern Philippines. Its woven frame is decorated with feathers and seated on top is a wooden figure - the rice god Bul-ul. Bul-ul brings good luck to the harvest and the village chief would probably wear this crown during planting and harvest rituals. The figure wears a band of yellow and red woven cloth. Seed earrings dangle from the ears and a seed necklace adorns the neck. A spray of feathers shoots out the top of the head. The Ifugao women are known for their weaving crafts and basketry, while the men are skilled wood carvers and metal workers. This crown has both weaving and woodcarving, so we know that both women and men worked on it. The frame has been woven from grass, and a cloth headband reinforces the frame at the front. The older members of the village carve Bul-ul figures. For special ceremonies a senior priest carves the Bul-ul from sacred wood of a chosen na...
