I use to say that the best sunrise can be seen on a beach because of the magical reflections of the golden rays on the sea. But then, I have never been to Sagada before. Now, I am having a second-thought about my statement because sunrise in Kiltipan is somewhat a mesmerizing experience.Kiltipan is one of Sagada's highest points. To catch the sunrise, we woke-up at around 4 in the morning and boarded a jeepney we have hired the night before. The jeepney ride last for about twenty-minutes on an uphill, unpaved road. We eventually stopped at Kiltipan Viewdeck and prepared ourselves for the sunrise.
At five o' clock in the morning, the entire surrounding is still pitch-black but in just few minutes more, as the first glimpse of rays arrive, and as your eyes get acquainted with the dark, you will be awed with the sea of clouds enveloping the land and mountains below. And as time passes, the hues of sunrise mixed with the images of the mountains will just take your breath-away. Well, enough talking, here are some shots I have taken that one great morning in Sagada.

ReplyDelete:D i've been to Sagada myself but never been to that particular place. Personally for me, sunrise or sunset seen from a mountain is the best. The next best thing is the beach. Galing ng mga kuha mo! love them all!
