Traveling to Sagada won’t be complete without visiting the famous Hanging Coffins. It’s suppose to be creepy but the fact that it has become a major tourist attraction, you will be amaze by just watching them few meters away.
Hanging Coffins of Sagada
Our first stop for this morning is to visit the Hanging Coffins. We woke up early that day around 5AM to have enough time to prepare but I honestly felt like I don’t wanna take a bath. There was no hot shower available. And so I didn’t take a bath. You won’t smell me anyway. 😛
In case you’re in doubt, there are real bodies or skeletons inside those coffins okay. This way of burying the bodies is still being practice by members of Igorot tribe until today.In fact the latest addition(I think) is the one under “Bomit-og” coffin. For more info, please visit here.
After having our souvenir picture, we stopped by at the so-called “echo-valley” to take some rest and do some photo ops. The view was amazing.
That’s pretty much our short visit to the hanging coffins. I think that you should come see it for yourself because it’s something that you don’t encounter everyday. And that I always refer as “experience”.
I was wondering if there are tribes/natives living around that area?
yes there are tribes living around the area.. the "tradition" is very much alive.
Something I never seen or even heard of… What a unique way to place the coffin..
Hanging coffins? Now that's something I've never heard of. I love your pictures x
Try taking a shower where it's 4 degrees like where I am, haha. I have to do it everyday!
I've always wanted to visit the hanging coffins. They're so interesting! Maybe I will when I'm back in the Philippines.
the place is breathtaking! Love the natural scenery!
Very interesting. I have to do more research on this.
A real scary and creepy place! I would freak out there and then for sure .
heard of these hanging coffins a while back. it's sure a rare sight but i can't decide if i'll really wanna see them irl for myself or not.
Really?? Hanging coffins? That is soo scary. Glad you shared all your experience here.
