Baguio City

Baguio, also known as City of Pines or City of Flowers, lies on a plateau 1400m above sea level. It was built by the colonizing Americans as a recreational and administrative centre, from where they could preside over their precious tropical colony without working up too much of a sweat.

Baguio is one of the first place I ever seen outside Metro Manila. I was just 11 years old when our family first went up to Baguio. I have been there for more than 5 times but the last dates back in 1989. Baguio surely have change since that time.
