We proceeded to Echo Valley to see the abundance of nature through its beautiful landscapes and to further discover the rich historical culture of Sagada.
The Echo Valley is said to be shaped like a large megaphone producing any sound that echoes and vibrates across the valley that is why it is called as such.
The Echo Valley of Sagada is also one of the best places to see Hanging Coffins in the Philippines. Our tour guide, Allan, said that the practice of Hanging Coffins started when the Igorot tribe of Mt. Province believes that the bodies of their dead loved ones will be elevated in a higher place, then, it will be closer to their ancestral spirit.
