  • Baguio Cathedral
    • Just right across Burnham Park along Session road. you can check out the Cathedral


  • St. Louie University
    • So i visited the Medical institution which happens to SLU, last time i visited was May 2012 so I tried to check it out and see the venue once more, nothing seemed to changed. Going up their steep stairs was really tiring but worth to visit.



  • SM Baguio
    • The Mall without air-condition! true enough i prove it! So I head off to the Mall and the christmas tree was still up for the from the last Christmas season. I got to enjoy the known no air-conditioned mall of the North. It typically has a pretty view up on the veranda which can give you a neat view of the City. From there I head off to Camp John Hay

  • Camp John Hay
    • Eco Trek was the first thing I saw around the area. The place was amazing and neat you can appreciate the huge area of nature and it was not too crowded when i checked it out. 

    • This is the Butterfly Dome you won't miss it on your way to the Eco trail 


  • Tam-awan Village


  • Fertility Hut: Duklig

    Funny how the comfort room was labeled

    this little village is located northwestern part of the city. This is a haven for artist and collection of the old Ifugao and Kalinga huts. You can also appreciate the tribal rituals and beliefs that can amaze how such culture exist in our country.
  • Strawberry Farm 
    • located at La Trinidad, Benguet
    • Try their famous Strawberry jam and 
    • Strawberry picking cost about 60Php if you want to pick your own strawberry then 1 kilo cost about 140Php




    Go see the famous Strawberry farm, this is located outside the city. You have to try those strawberries! it is cheap and definitely tasty nice to bring home for friends and family.
