" ITOGON, Benguet is more popularly known as the "gold haven" in the Region. With the mineral rich land and mountains oozing colors of crystal white to yellows to rich terra cotas and golds, rising from ordinary and semi-arid landscape. Driving through the now completely paved roads to the area, visitors get a glimpse of the ruins of once prosperous minesites that closed shop a few years back when the rich ores were depleted and and gone to muck. Lakes of granite-gray tillings still spread over some views. "
