Mayong Museum
Our guide will bring you to Mayong, a village steeped in folklore and legends for centuries. The village's association with black magic is even mentioned in epics like the Mahabharata, where Ghatotkacha is said to have derived his magical powers from Mayon.
We will learn about how the villagers have adapted with times to become healers. Mayong today is renowned for its traditional healing practices, which often incorporate elements of black magic and witchcraft.
At the miuseum we can see a diverse collection of artifacts, including ancient manuscripts, skulls, relics used in rituals, and tools that were once used for human sacrifices. It also features stone statues, old coins, and jewellery made from bones and shells
