Why Baguio Remains To Be One of The Most Sought Local Destinations

I first went to Baguio when I was 16 years old. Back then, I didn't know where I want to go or what I want to do in the place. Nevertheless, the experience was delightful. But recently, in a spur of the moment invitation, my friend and I found ourselves taking the night trip to Baguio with no concrete plans on what to do next. Once we stepped out of the bus at 4 am, we realized there's really no need for some planning, everything else just fell into place.

Going back to the place, I felt like I was a first timer. Technically that was the case. That being said, I pretty much wanted to experience everything and that includes walking from point to point whenever possible. It was exhausting but the breezy and fairly cold weather make it tolerable. 


The basin structure of Baguio makes walking around town basically challenging, but if you're resourceful enough to ask for alternative routes, people are more than willing to help you.



You can opt to take the public transportation or have your own rented car when going around Baguio city. An offer to visit all the tourist spots within the day including private transportation will probably cost around Php 3,000 give or take.



Regardless of the season you choose to visit Baguio, there will always be tourists visiting the place and you won't have to be the only one amazed with the scenery.





Food is incredible! small restaurants up the  Mine's View Park is the only one I tried while I was there and the veggies couldn't get 'fresher!' Cool climate, hot food, wide selection on the menu and what I think is a reasonable price? LET'S CHOW DOWN!










Probably the nearest I can get to the San Francisco bridge :D


Nature Stroll..


Some parts of the Botanical Garden. If you visit the place on a regular day, you may find it very peaceful and subtly endearing. 


Another "nearest that I can get to" thing. I don't think I'll ever step to a mansion house of any kind.
