Kalinga: See

Most visitors come to Kalinga either to do whitewater rafting along the Chico River or see Balbalasang National Park, an overlooked and mostly unclimbed stretch of the Cordillera mountains. Since the 2010s, a growing trend is to go to the isolated village of Buscalan and have a tattoo from Whang-Od, a centenarian woman from of the Butbut tribe who is known as the last indigenous tattoo artist (mambabatok) in the Cordilleras, although she continues to train apprentices from the village.
Kalinga is also known for its heritage villages of Naneng in Tabuk and Awichon in Lubuagan, offering visitors the chance to live like the natives.
