Escape to the “Summer Capital” and feel the instant embrace of the cool mountain mist and the sweet scent of a thousand pine trees. This journey is a masterclass in Filipino heritage, taking you from the official summer seat of power at The Mansion to the vibrant, flower-filled paths of the Baguio Botanical Garden. You’ll stand atop the famous Mines View Park for a panoramic look at the Cordillera ridges, explore the historic American-era charm of the Camp John Hay Historical Core, and dive into the sacred tribal history and ancient mummies housed in the pyramid-shaped Baguio Museum.

The adventure reaches new heights at the Kennon Road Zigzag Viewpoint, where you’ll marvel at the daring mountain road carved into the cliffs. Witness the prestige of the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) and its vintage displays, then see living art in motion at the Easter Weaving Room, where master artisans transform threads into intricate textiles. After wandering through the traditional Ifugao huts of the Tam-Awan Village art colony, you’ll end your day at the La Trinidad Strawberry Farm, picking sun-ripened berries and savouring the legendary local strawberry taho.
