Kapurpurawan Rock Formation is a natural rock formation in Burgos, Ilocos Norte, Philippines.[1]

It is located on the northwestern tip of Burgos[2] and is situated right next to another popular tourist attraction, Bangui Wind Farm. [3]

It was named after the Ilocano word "puraw" which means "white”, in reference to the white limestone formations formed over time.[4]
