Let's GO BAGUIO: The Philippines' Summer Capital!



The City of Baguio is a business and commerce center located in the province of Benguet in northern Luzon Island in the Philippines. It's altitude and location gives the city a cool climate and was then designated as "The Summer Capital of the Philippines" as most people would escape that excessive lowland heat during summer. City of Pines, City of Mines, City of Flowers, Garden City of the Philippines - these are just few of the many distinctions that Baguio lived up with because of its fresh, green and peaceful environment. (History review: This city is a hill station established by the Americans during 1900s, the only US Hill Station in Asia)
