agada is a municipality in Mountain Province, Philippines. Apart from its hanging coffins, it’s known for its caves, waterfalls, limestone mountains, and hill-tribe atmosphere. Due in part to its remote location in the Central Cordillera Mountains, it was left relatively untouched by conquistadores during the Spanish era. A Spanish mission wasn’t founded in Sagada until 1882, resulting in one of the few places in the Philippines that’s preserved its indigenous culture with little Spanish influence.

omod-ok Falls is also called the Big Falls because, well, it is definitely bigger than Bokong Falls, another popular waterfall in Sagada. Hidden deep in a valley, it takes an hour to two to get here by foot from the main road (and that’s just one-way). Bomod-ok’s cold, cold water cascades from the top of a beautiful naturally contoured cliff to a pool below, forming a 200-ft column of water and wonder.

The Blue Soil Hills is probably one of Sagada’s best kept secrets. It’s tucked within the mountainous terrains of thousand old limestones. As its name suggests, it is a roll of hills in a lovely color of faint blue no bigger than a square kilometer surrounded by towering pine trees. This stunner is evidence that despite Sagada’s quick rise to fame instantly becoming a tourist hubspot, there is still a less explored place up there where you can enjoy a time of peace and quiet.

The Cave Connection Tour starts at Lumiang Cave, a burial site where hundreds of coffins are stacked as part of the local tradition. At the mouth of Lumiang, we were gathered around our tour guides from SaGGAs (Sagada Genuine Guides Association), who briefed us on what to expect inside and how to make our tour easy, enjoyable, and above all, safe. Around us were some broken coffins and human remains, which were all cluttered by an earthquake several years ago, according to the guides.

One of the artistic expression of the of the locals of the Sagada can be seen on their pottery. Emotions and artistry are passed on from concept to their hands and to the clay and finally the artwork. Each of the pottery depicts various concepts and refinement of each of its complex designs are visible and unique among one another. Sagada Pottery is located along Sagada's West Road and is about two kilometers from the town center.
