Dear friends, today we are heading to Baguio, Philippines to start a wonderful journey! This city, known as the "Summer Capital", is located among the mountains in northern Luzon Island, Philippines, with a coolness and tranquility like a paradise. Now, let us embark on this unforgettable trip to Baguio and experience its unique charm. City overview: Located in the northern part of Luzon Island, in the Godilila Mountains in the Alpine Province, at an altitude of about 2,000 meters, 90% of the residents believe in Catholicism and Christianity. The climate is cool and it is called the "Summer Capital". Best time to travel: From December to February of the following year, the average temperature is around 30°C and there is little rainfall, making it suitable for travel.

Hayjohn U.S. Army Retreat: It was once a U.S. 🇺🇸 military base, and now it has become a tourist attraction. It offers activities such as zip lining and horse riding 🐴.

Return your passport after the tour 🔚. 4 Ethnic Minority Museum: Understand local ethnic culture and beliefs. 5 Baguio Cathedral: It has Spanish architectural style and is a landmark building in Baguio. Its traditional stained glass windows are very ingenious and unique. 6 Bay Lake: The largest lake in Baguio, the lake is green and crystal clear, suitable for fishing and water sports.
