Tam-awan Village

A hillside village of rebuilt traditional thatched houses of the Ifugao and Kalinga peoples, also a creative colony for Baguio's artists.

The village was founded in 1996 by artists including BenCab (Benedicto Cabrera). Traditional stilt houses with thatched roofs were moved here from across the Cordillera and set along the slope, where you can step inside or even stay overnight. The village has art galleries, handicraft shops and cafés, and weekends often bring indigenous dance performances and painting workshops. “Tam-awan” means “to look out over,” and on clear days you can watch the sunset toward the South China Sea. Admission is about PHP 100.
