Museo Kordilyera in Baguio lets you time travel to the past and learn the rich culture of the Igorots

This is one of the event you should include in your travel itinerary when you visit Baguio - touring the newly built two-story museum at the University of the Philippine campus called MUSEO KOLDIYERA. 

Since its official launching in February this year, the first ethnographic museum in the north has now been opened for visitors who want to have a glimpse on the rich culture of the Cordillera people through exhibits and displays of their ancient and treasured material culture. 

The Museo Kordileyera was built not only to showcase the different indigenous  culture of Cordillera but " dedicated to the preservation and enrichment" of them.

The museum is a good venue for anyone who wants to have an understanding and learn the identity and culture of the Indigenous people of the Cordillera and Northern Luzon. 

If you want to know and learn the method of tattooing "Batok" done in Ifugao, know what a "hagabi" looks like, come face to face with a "Kadangyan" then head to this museum. 

The museum is situated inside UP-Baguio campus, just a 5-minute walk from Victory Liner bus station. The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday at 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
