Manila Guide Online

I am always proud to be a Filipino, despite the tragedies and misfortunes that has bestowed upon us. I believe that if we work together as a team and as a nation, we can achieve more unity. Like the Ifugaos, they collaborated and created one of the wonders of the earth. The  Banawe Rice Terraces. They attain this through helping everyone and planting rice diligently.

Since it has been dubbed as the Eight World Wonder of the world, it has gained more tourists every year to see the beautiful works of our Filipino brothers and sisters.

Another thriving economy in the Banaue Rice Terraces is tourism. The Tourism industry has developed a number of activities for visitors which may include the traditional sightseeing of the terraces and visits to the tribes at the foot of the terraces. A Mumbaki  is also recommended  to visitors, these doctors can perform spiritual healing rituals. Domestic tourism however has gone down over the past few years. A contributing factor to this is the treatment of Domestic tourists by the local guides in the area where it has been reported that on a few occasions the guides drop you the instant a foreign visitor comes along. Batad Environmental Tour Guides Association (BETGA) in association with the Batad Baranguay authorities are currently laying a concrete track down from the Batad Saddle to the village proper.
