IFUGAO - BATAD

An Ifugao man in traditional dress before a backdrop of the Batad Rice Terraces in the Cordilleras mountains of northern Luzon, Philippines. The Ifugao were once known as the supreme headhunters and woodcarvers of this remote and still inaccessible region, 12km from the regional center of Banaue along an unimproved dirt track, and a further 45 minute walk from the trailhead down into the valley.
