The 6 provinces of Abra, Ifugao, Benguet, Kalinga, Mt Province, Apayao and the lone City of Baguio celebrated the 26th Cordillera day with fervor and enthusiasm. The local officials of these northern provinces converge in Baguio City after a week-long unity relay that took off from Baguio last July 9, 2013 with no less than the City Mayor leading the send-off.
The Cordillera administrative region was established some 26 years ago to prepare for its conversion from an administrative region to an autonomous one as provided for in the Constitution of the land. The event was celebrated with much "Tadok" - the native dance from the different ethnic groups in the Cordi.
