[Traveler's Journal] - Flashback - 02/2005 - Philippines - Philippines - Ifugao Tribal People in the Philippines

In 2005, my niece and I visited the Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines which is a Unesco World Heritage site and is sometimes referred to as the 'eight wonder of the world'.  These are the tribal people that lives in the area.



The term "Ifugao" is derived from the term "ipugo' which means "earth people", "mortals", or "humans". It also means "from the hill" as pugo means hill.
