Baguio Philippines

A Favorite Summer Getaway...A Year-round Retreat

Baguio Philippines. Carved on top of the Cordillera mountains in Northern Luzon, Baguio City was designed as a recreation base of American military personnel in 1903.

With its pine forests, grassy hills and cool pleasant climate, Baguio provided the Americans with the ideal place to escape the warm summer heat in the lowlands.

Today more than ever Baguio draws honeymooners, families, artists, and others looking not only for a cool summer retreat but also for unique adventures.

While in Baguio, enjoy a stroll, a boat or a bike ride along at Burnham Park. Bowl or golf at Camp John Hay. Marvel at the panoramic views of old Benguet mines at Mines View Park.

Make a pilgrimage to the twin-spire Baguio Cathedral and to the Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes. Visit the ethnic tribe in Tam-awan Village, and more.

Baguio is also a gateway to the various attractions of Northern Luzon, including the world-famous Banaue Rice Terraces (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), the enchanting mountains and subterranean caves of Sagada, the splendid Hundred Islands of Pangasinan, and the historical and cultural relics of Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte.
