Baguio city - the city of God. Many reasons for that name - one of them the large number of spiritual healer here in Baguio city
|
The love of its people for God is best experienced in the last several days before Christmas day when the music calls for the early morning mass - the Christmas music from the Cathedral St. Mary calling all loving hearts as early as around 4 AM and by the time the mass starts around 5 AM the Cathedral St. Mary is usually overfilled with loving hearts from all city and hundreds of teens and twens following the call of God's love

Baguio city is at an altitude of around 1600 meters above sea level with many surrounding hills and flowers year round all over the city. With changing season the flowers change as well
|
The highest hill near the center of Baguio city is the new and large SM mall - this is the best point to have a panoramic view of all surrounding hills and the heart of the city
|
Every direction you look - the city has a different face with different vegetation and different population density as well
|
The highest near by mountains are above the clouds
|
A view down to the heart of Baguio city - the Burnham park
|
the Burnham park with its small lake is the attraction for all - including all Philippinos
|
Thousands of flowers all years round. This end of November the last from the many thousands of summer dahlias are expiring
|
and thousands of roses are just starting to blossom now
|
Now we have mostly white and pink roses blossoming
|
all Burnham park as well as other areas of the city of Baguio are well maintained with thousands of flowers in many colors and species blossoming for the joy of all hearts - in February each year we have a 2 weeks flower festival in Baguio city attracting ten thousands of visitors almost day and night
|
The one hotel I prefer since 1998 for almost all my previous visits is Burnham Hotel |
Shopping in Baguio is easy - near the Burnham park is the large market with many tropical and mountain fruits fruits, blueberries, and very unique - delicious strawberries 12 months a year and of course its nation wide known Baguio vegetables as well as a large flower market ... or you walk the Session road up and shop in the many stores on both sides or on top of the session road in SM mall clearly visible from very far already |
A Google search may give you more information and facts - see the Google search box at the bottom of this page. Baguio is a large city with a high density of traffic in center areas and a high population density in many areas. Sometimes a bit crowded like in other major cities.
Baguio City is a university city - thus you see thousands of students and to meet all needs of students you find plenty of Internet cafes, dancing or music places open each day until midnight or past midnight.
Music Magic is easy to find at its new location on Session Road. From Prime Hotel down the left side of session road, you will find stairs going down to the new and improved location of Music magic. Music magic is open usually from 8 PM until about 3 AM - sometimes even longer and 7 days a week. 2 Life bands - both about 5-8 players / singers are playing music with love and all heart - hence music magic. Each band an hour or so - then shift change - if you have a music wish it is usually played within minutes - guest singers welcome later in night ..
The place is pretty large - may be hundred persons early evening, later a little less - and has many good drinks and excellent food as well. all at a very very reasonable price affordable for all.
Coming from Manila - you have many comfortable busses day and night into the center of Baguio. 2 Main bus terminals - one near session road and another one a little more outside but always taxis waiting.
From San Fernando La Union there are busses leaving about every 5-10 minutes from bus terminal opposite Town Plaza San Fernando La Union - the bus ride is about 1:45 hrs and the last bus downhill leaves Baguio around 19:00 hrs. Later you may need a taxi to return to La Union. A taxi from Baguio to La Union would be about 1500-2000 Peso.

Baguio is an excellent starting point if you plan a trip by bus to the rice terraces in Sagada. The buses to Sagada are leaving VERY early morning usually before 8 AM and the bus terminal is almost walking distance from Burnham Hotel - may be 1 km toward the center. A taxi may be best to get to that bus terminal. Ask the day before or earlier about bus schedules - sometimes in rainy season the road to Sagada may be damaged and interrupted. Best time is dry season - winter time for a trip from Baguio to Sagada
