A Journey To The Country's Summer Capital

By Jude Wallenberg at 03/28/08 17:49

Arriving at Baguio City, the first destination chosen by most of the visitors is Mines View Park. Undoubtedly, this is one of the most visited park in the city and even in the country.

On one part of the park, there is a viewing deck that offers great panoramic views of Benguet's Gold and Copper Mines alongside the mountains and other green surroundings of Baguio that will surely captivate your heart; the strawberry plantations, the line of pine trees, the bushes of green plants among others. Of course, the park is not complete without the souvenir shops! Here you can take home the lovely crafts and products you can find nowhere in the country except Baguio.

The next stop would The Mansion of the Wright Park. Both are very captivating, but visitors are attracted more to visit the The Mansion. It is simply because The Mansion is the president's official summer residence. It is said that the gate of The Mansion was a complete replica of that at Buckingham Palace in London. The Mansion's lawn is open for public but going inside the Mansion itself is not allowed. But before reaching the main house, you have to go in a circular path way before arriving at the center where the Mansion grande is located.

Aside from these, there are the Philippine Military Academy, the Burnham Park, Bell Church and other convents among others. But the trip is surely not complete without visiting Session Road and The City Public Market.

Session Road is the nightlife site of Baguio. Bars, major hotel chains,. restaurants and malls are located here. The Public Market, is very famous not only in Baguio but also in Manila. It is because they have a daily shipping of fresh vegetables from the mountain down to the metros.

A trip to Baguio will definitely one of the best decision you will ever make in your summer life!
