CALLAO CAVE, Cagayan Province
In Tuguegarao City, we chartered a tricycle to Callao Cave jump off, one
of the famous caves in the Philippines. Callao Cave is a seven chamber
cave in Peñablanca, Cagayan where scientists and experts discovered a
67,000 years old fossilized remains of a Callao Man in 2007, that's
thousand years older than the Tabon Man in Palawan. This cave is
situated on the Northern foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountains.
Peñablanca, the name of the municipality, is a Spanish word which means
white rocks because of the limestone present in the area.
