There are lots of turns and pathways, mostly was going up through the stairs which are quite steep and narrow, others are rocky and tricky but there is one which was concrete and dry near the gallery area.

The place also exhibits various form of arts with pride of every artist in the different galleries.

And if you really want to experience a glimpse of the traditional Cordillera life, you can stay in one of their native houses for a certain fee for overnight or depending on how long you want to engage in the village. They have cafe that can cater for you, souvenir shops made delicately by creative hands of the locals and appreciate arts in every corner of the Tam-Awan, which means Vintage Point.

Thank you and have a good day!
