Colors of Baguio City Philippines

Me and my family just went to a three-day trip to Baguio City, the coolest part of the Philippines north of Manila. The city has drastically changed from the last time we visited years ago but it hasn't lost the refreshingly cool weather, familiar pine tree scent and wonderful parks and tourist places. One thing very noticeable prominent is the hundred fold increase in houses that dot the city landscape. You can literally see a full mountain made up of houses stacked together making it the only city with such an urban cityscape. Night and day the mountain of houses never ceases to amaze visitors because of its uniqueness in the entirety of the Philippine archipelago.


Though it rained on our first day of sightseeing forcing us to defer visits on most parks and landmarks, we found ourselves having a blast on the succeeding days which blessed us with beautiful sunshine and pretty colors that only Baguio can offer.

Baguio hasn't really lost its charm contrary to what most people say and given the opportunity, we will come back and explore the richness and beauty of this beautiful city in the mountain.
