Enjoy all that Batad has to offer - the village, its amphitheater shaped rice terraces and the thundering Tappiyah Falls! An overnight stay in Batad gives ample time for visitors to enjoy the view of the terraces and bath in early morning sunshine. Sunrise in Batad is absolutely a wonderful view and experience for the tourists. Also, enough time to go swimming in the pool created by the thundering 70-meters Tappiyah falls. The main village, Bhabloy is an interesting Ifugao village where the way of life of the villagers remains intact despite the passing of time.
