Baguio: Tam-awan Village

Tam-awan Village

Tam-awan Village in Pinsao Proper, Baguio City uniquely blends indigenous aesthetics and exquisite Cordilleran craftsmanship with an artist’s concept for a village adapting to Baguio setting. Went there the day before the Panagbenga Grand Float Parade together with my friend, my cousin and her 5 year old kid. It's a unique blend of appreciating the culture and way of living of the Ifugao as well as masterpieces made by their local artists.

Baguio: Wright Park and The Mansion

Here are some photos taken during our recent trip to Baguio city. Wright Park and The Mansion are just two spots we've visited during our first day in Baguio.

Directly across The Mansion is Wright Park that features the much photographed Baguio landmark, the "Pool of Pines". One will see a gazebo and a long flight of stairs down the hill leading to the Wright Park Riding Circle, where hundreds of horses and ponies of various sizes are for hire.

Baguio: Botanical Garden

If you want to bring home a picture of Baguio's famous Igorot Tribe, Botanical Garden is the place to go. Although one of the most visited sites in Baguio, I find our visit in the garden nothing really exceptional compared with other tourit spots. There's really not much to be seen and do especially if you've already visited Tam-awan and other garden like themes in Baguio. But one thing I'd like to mention though are the huge statues that can be seen in the park area as well as the chance to mingle with the Igorot Tribe. :)

La Trinidad: Strawberry Farm

Below are photos taken during our fresh strawberry harvest in Benguet, 30 minutes away from Baguio City.

A Walk inside BenCab Museum

Personally, our trip at the Bencab Museum is my favorite amongst other places we've visited in Baguio. I was able to meet the National artist himself, Benedicto Reyes Cabrera or BenCab.
