Also known as the Colors of StoBoSa, the Valley of Colors is a tourist attraction recognized for its colorful and lovely houses located at the community hillside. It’s a feast for the eyes with different colors emanating from every corner. It is famously known as an Instagram-worthy spot for locals and tourists around the country because of the picturesque spots, using the houses as your background.
Not only a place for Instagram, but it’s also a design of artwork to admire. Based on the favela paintings of Brazil, 150-200 houses were involved for this project and was inspired to have the sunflower and rainbow motif. It is being taken care of by the local government to preserve its beauty and culture. Definitely a must-visit!
If you’ve gone to Bell Church, another tourist destination, then going to Valley of Colors would be an easy journey. Aside from that, it’s only a walking distance from the welcome arch of La Trinidad and Bell Church, it’s also reachable through commute.
How to get there
From Baguio City,
1. By private car: From Session Road, make your way to Magsaysay Avenue that connects to Halsema Highway. Continue driving until you reach the welcome arch of La Trinidad, Benguet. 15 meters from there, you would reach the Valley of Colors to your right.
2. By jeepney (costs P17 roundtrip): Ride a jeep bound to Tomay or La Trinidad at Magsaysay Avenue. Their terminal is near Abanao Square at the back of the Baguio Market. Ask the driver to drop you off at the Valley of Colors. It will take you around 15 minutes from Baguio.
3. By taxi (costs P100): From any point in Baguio, ride a taxi that would take you to Valley of Colors in La Trinidad Benguet. It’s the easiest and convenient way as it will take you only around 10 minutes at least.
Once you get there, a sign in form would be provided where you will have to fill up with your name and address. There’s also a mini-store where you can buy some Benguet delicacies as well as a donation box for the regulation of the place. It’s also a little contribution for the community of StoBoSa, so we suggest to give if you have something.
