Sagada is one of the ten towns of Mountain Province in the Cordillera Region of Northern Philippines. It has a population of about 10,000 divided into its 19 barangays.

Agriculture is the main source of income in Sagada. Cabbages, carrots, and potatoes are common crops while rice is planted for household consumption. Sagada also earns significantly from its tourism industry. It is known for its pleasant climate, pine sceneries, rocky terrain, waterfalls, centuries-old burial caves, rice terraces, local weaving and hanging coffins.

The locals of Sagada are called Igorots. The dialect spoken is Kankana-ey though interestingly; most locals express themselves better in English than in Filipino, the national language. Also, unlike most Philippine towns, Sagada's populace is predominantly Anglican.

Two Seasons

Another evidence that Boracay has indeed crossed the threshold into becoming a regional, if not a global, tourist destination is in its drawing power to reel in local and foreign investments worth billions of pesos, in addition to its natural attraction to tourists both in the country and overseas. Those who stand to benefit from these are, needless to say, the Tirol clan who owned and continues to own much of the original properties on the island and the local populace in and around the island who can look forward to increased employment and livelihood opportunities.

And if you come in early enough, the four beachfront cabanas offer a tropical ambiance to top off your perfect Boracay beach dining and nightout at barLO!Indeed! new and more exciting things are coming to the island, sure , there are kinks to be ironed out but hey! they shouldn't stop us from enjoying what Boracay has to offer and barLO promises to draw in more of the discriminating culinary and nightlife crowd to this side of the main white beach.
