Sagada, Mountain Province is categorically classified as a 5th degree municipality, which is strategically situated almost 275 kilometers from the northernmost part of the Philippine capital. Hence, its boundless attractiveness is further magnified by its Cave Princess, the Sumaguing Cave.
There are over 60 caves discovered underneath the town of Sagada. Of all of these underworlds, Sumaguing Cave has the biggest chamber, earning its nickname "The Big Cave". Inside are countless rock formations slowly shaped by nature over thousands of years. These rock formations mimicking familiar shapes are the highlight of this spelunking adventure. Some of these formations include the bear, elephants, turtle head, and chocolate cake.
Going to the main part of your Sagada escapade, the allegedly spirit-infested cave was literally engulfed with darkness. As a result, the only source of light that can be relied upon id from a gasoline-powered lamp which is constantly held by the cave's assigned tour guide. As you go along its long and windin steps while going to the Sumaguing Cave, you have to step on those wet and slippery rocks.
Sumaguing Cave is probably one of the most popular of all the tourist attractions in Sagada. The experience will be definitely leaving a lasting memory.
