Tanudan, officially the Municipality of Tanudan, is a municipality in the province of Kalinga, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 8,746 people, making it the least populated municipality in the province.

Folklore

The town is known for Mount Binaratan. Legend tells that the supreme god of the Kalinga people went into the mountain to hunt but was irritated due to the noises made by the birds, so he ordered the birds to be quiet. When he was done hunting, he forgot to revoke his order from the birds, and thus, the mountain kept silent for all of eternity. Another popular place is the Lubo Village, whose houses are strategically surrounded with rice terraces. Legend says that a brave warrior challenged God, claiming that no one was stronger than him. So God started building a dam made of rocks. When the water became high enough, God released the water through a hole called "lubu" that drowned the warrior and his family. The people from Ga-ang and Dacalan gathered together with the remnants of the relatives of the said warrior and saw that the flooded soil was good for planting rice, so they started to cultivating the land and named the village "Lubo".
