We had a little adventure on Thursday, after attending a burial and enjoying some treats and then taking time to cool ourselves under the trees. We just drove along the roads not knowing what to expect as it was our first time checking out some of the villages in town. As we started the journey, we were fascinated by some artwork along the streets.
Our Lil Guy was just as excited as we were he had his head out of the window like he was checking whether we were going the right way or not😅

We passed by hills, farms, and small communities and spotted some in the distance. We had no clue which places they were but we went on anyway.

After driving for a while, we came across a small signage, welcoming us to Liten. We have never heard of the place before but we were curious to check it out.
As we were about to go down the seemingly private road, our eyes caught a spectacle in the distance. "Huh?" We chorused as we looked at each other, lol! Then the husband stepped on the gas because we were excited to see it.
Unfortunately, when we got closer, we noticed the Igloo-like houses were surrounded by cyclone wire fencing indicating it was private property.
We lingered along the roadside for a while hoping anyone was around but we did not see a soul. It seemed no one was residing there, as the grasses around it had grown tall. So we took the liberty to capture some photos praying whoever owns the Igloos wouldn't mind.😁
But yes, we were amazed at such a wonder, a beautiful piece of architecture hidden in the middle of nowhere atop a hill.

We reckon it wasn't built as a tourist attraction. If it was meant as such and open to visitors, it would have been flocked by tourists. But who knows it would become one in the future.
Wanting to know if there was any information regarding it, I did a quick search online and learned that it is the first Igloo-like structure in the country (Philippines).
Anyway, we also savored these views just across the Igloos. Yongi even played on the grass, sniffing this and that, until the cool breeze prompted us to hop into the car and drive to the next place.

This by the way was the place on the map (screenshot via Google Maps, no copyright infringement intended).
(via Google Map)I'd say, the drive was worth it because we discovered the hidden gem where we did not expect it. We remain curious about how it is inside and hope that someday, the place will open its doors to the public and we would not hesitate to check it out again.
Thank you and until our next adventure :)
