6 CARの美しい部

July 15 – thirty years ago, then President Corazon Aquino issued Executive Order (EO) 220 that created Cordillera Administrative Region. Situated in Luzon, CAR is the only landlocked region in the country, comprised of 6 provinces – a home to many tribes of Igorots.
As a whole, CAR has two cities: Tabuk of Kalinga, and Baguio, a chartered city of Benguet, which is the highly urbanized place in the region. However, the six provinces are equally blessed with natural resources boasting beautiful landscapes and rich culture that the Philippines can be proud of. Some have been recognized by the world, and others have contributed to the history of mankind.
There are a lot of things to discover about Cordillera, but let us give you a glimpse of these majestic treasures.
