After a sumptuous lunch at The Barn, we took a side trip to the Igorot Stone Kingdom. Igorot Stone Kingdom is one of the newest attractions in Baguio, it is a man-made park made out of stone that showcases Igorot culture. The inspiration is based on a legend of a lost Igorot Stone Kingdom.

There’s an entrance fee to access Igorot Stone Kingdom. Here’s the rates of Igorot Stone Kingdom as of June 2024.

There’s gold painted Igorot statue guarding the entrance.

Inside, you’ll see a multi-tiered Stone Kingdom where guest can freely explore.

Igorot Stone Kingdom features several attractions that highlights Igorot culture. You can also rent a traditional Igorot outfit to add to the experience.

Unfortunately, we only explored a small part of the Igorot Stone Kingdom because it was gloomy and drizzling during our visit.
