Baguio Trip


Well, I love travelling so I usually look for things like blogs, travel tours, etc. on the internet. This is just a quick help for those people planning a trip to Baguio City.


Tip:: Choosing a date.

~ Most of us wants to experience the Panagbenga Festival. If you are going there during this season, expect for a high rate of accommodation on every hotel, so it's best to rent a room in lodging houses. Somewhere beside the Victory Liner Station there's a booth provided by the Baguio Tourism Office where you can look for lodging houses, hotels, etc.

~ The risk of going there during panagbenga fest is that hindi na kayo makakapunta sa other tourist destinations, lalo na kung two days lang kayong mag stay don.





Where to stay::

~best place to stay is at friend's house. hehehe but if you are going to rent, madaming for rent na apartment, house, room, even transient so that's not really a problem.
Tip:: huwag sa masyadong mahal. Importante yung matutulugan at maliliguan. Because you're not going to stay indoors naman masyado. At kelangan ng budget para sa lakaran, para mas madaming mabili at magawa.


Where to eat::

~50's Diner
                        

                       
~50's Diner is the best place to go. They have two branches, one in Upper General Luna Road, Corner Brent Road, and the other one I forgot the location. (sorry)
~at night you can go and have a blast at Nevada Square where a set of clubs and bars are located. Bottoms Up!

Where to go::
~first stop is at PMA Fort Del Pilar.
Here you will see the remnants of war, tanks, Philippine Air Force planes and the famous tree house. Pwede rin pong mag papicture sa mga nag lalakad na army trainee. 






~next stop Camp John Hay Commissary
here you can visit shopping center sa baba sa may Commissary, imported products parang duty-free ang prices since commissary sya so worth it kung mag stop kayo don dahil puro factory outlet ang stores. Makikita nyo rin dito ang The Manor.
  



 ~Next sa Historical Core (yung house na ginamit sa Please be careful with my heart)
going there mas okay kung lalakarin nyo nalang para madaanan nyo yung eco park. Hndi naman mahirap maglakad pataas dahil malamig ang clima.





~Next stop, baba kayo sa likod ng house going sa park/amphitheater na puro flowers. then may way pataas (exit).


~ Tapos punta naman kayo sa TREETOP ADVENTURE. Dyan pwede kayong mag tagal. Bonding.



~Tip::
You can go to the Botanical Garden,too bad under renovation pa sya. I dunno kelan mag oopen, worth it puntahan. So go!

~Next stop Wright Park
Horseback riding, picture taking with our Igorots, with matching costume po yan P10.00 ang mag papicture sakanila with costumes na yun. then meron ding strawberry taho dito so try it.


~Next is The Mansion

you need to climb some stairs again, but because of the scenery hndi sya nakakapagod.





~and then to the famous Mines View.
here you can buy souvenirs, shirts, marami ding food so hndi kayo magugutom :) hndi ganon kamura ang souvenirs dito pero madaming variety. 





Tip:: Pwede nyong matapos yan ng two days.

During the first night mag bar muna kayo, then sa second night kelangan nyo nang mag punta ng Burnham Park, para sa boat ride, mangga, henna, at lalong lalo na sa UKAY UKAY. Nag start sila ng 9:00pm onwards na yan til 1:00am pag hndi peak season at hanggang umaga kapag peak season.




~in the morning of your probably third day, go visit the Baguio Cathedral.



~then go straight to Bell Church sa may La trinidad na sya.

~then from there go na kayo sa Strawberry Farm
the best ang strawberry ice cream so should try one. yung sa sorbetero kayo bibili ha. then dito medyo mas mura ang souvenir items so buy. mura din ang walis. at try buying yung wine nila made of rice, strawberry and blueberry. pwede ring mag 'strawberry picking' dito pag season.



Tip:: Dumaan ng La Trinidad Market, murang mura ang vegetables doon kesa sa ibang palengke dahil bagsakan dito ng gulay. So mas maganda kung sa pagpunta nyo dito ay may dala kayong sasakyan.

Then on your way home, don't forget to drop by sa Lion Head. A few pictures would do :)


Baguio Trip DONE! Hope I was of help ;)
