looking at the great Kapurpurawan rock formation draw us in awe but beyond its grandeur is another extraordinary view. this we didn't expect.
the Philippine archipelago is popular for the beautiful white sand island beaches and the grand rice terraces of Ifugao yet every time i explore the many provinces, i discovered that we too have so many great coastal landscape.
one that i'll highly recommend would be this Northern part of Luzon island. about 12 hours from Manila by bus and about an hour by plane, can be considered as one of the farthest that one can go from Manila by land. yet it's really worth it.
when we climbed one of Kapurpurawan's elevated area to take a good vantage point, we discovered another hidden and less featured coastal rock formation. reddish and grand.
the same sea and wind hammers this area, yet it is quite odd to see how this coast displays a variety of beautiful rock formations. i should say that it has one of the archipelago's best landscape view.
it just proves how awesome Ilocos Norte is. how awesome Philippines is.
