APAYAO – The Haven of Rising Opportunities & Adventure

Nestled between the provinces of Ilocos Norte & Cagayan lies Apayao. This hidden paradise was once part of the sole Kalinga-Apayao province since 1995. Now as a independent province and solely represents their own indigenous people, Apayao offers the most diverse, note-worthy sites that the Cordilleras have. Apayao is chosen to be PH First’s next #PH Random Journey!  Look at this place, we will definitely go there:
