Why Visit The Cordilleras Virtual Tour

Take a virtual tour to the Cordillera Central mountain range in the Philippines. The country is known for its pristine beaches but its equally beautiful mountains are often overlooked. The Cordillera Central mountain range is the highest and the single largest mass of mountains in the entire Philippine archipelago. The experience of visiting the Cordilleras is made much better by getting to know its indigenous people—adding more depth and richness to the Filipino culture. This class will explore a number of must-visit places in the Cordillera region as well as touch on the wonderful Igorot culture. The tour takes students on a virtual hike around the iconic sites and list the best places to stay at, plus different exciting activities around the majestic mountains. Afterward, there will be a trip consultation session to help the students plan their trip when travel is possible. The rice terraces are more than a sensational sight, it is also a source of sustenance for locals and Filipinos across the archipelago and a towering symbol of national pride. As we wait for real travel to happen, take this journey online and choose your adventure!
