Things to bring
by JaneCajuguiran
Travel light. If you come from a cold place, baguio won't be too cold for you. But if you're like me, who comes from a tropical country, then definitely cold during the "ber" months until about mid feb. But after that, a light jacket will do during the nighttime. pants and tees are the best things to bring except when you want to go swimming in asin (a hot spring) or have dinner at a fancy resto. almost everything you'll need is available at the local grocery. pack your digicam and videocam. They'll come in handy for storing memories which you'll have plenty of in baguio. There are places that are still breathtaking. A good mosquito repellant and a sunblock will give you a lot of protection from all the exploring you'll be doing.
Wright Park

named after the architect who designed the city, features a shallow elongated rectangular body of water known as the "Pool of Pines." At one end, there is a circle where visitors can go horseback-riding.
Some other frequently-visited spots in the city include the Lourdes Grotto, Teacher's Camp, the Bell Church, Lion's Head, and the public market, a favorite place for tourists looking for souvenirs.

Still serving quality Chinese food in Baguio!
by thescene about The Rose Bowl
The Rose Bowl located in fromt of Burnham Park has been an icon of Baguio for many years. Me and my family would always find the time to eat here everytime we would make the six hour trip to the city of pines. After which we would go to Burnham Park or Camp John Hay to continue our adventure.
On this trip to Baguio, the Rose Bowl was our first stop for a late lunch. Getting a parking spot was quite difficult so be ready for that. Arriving there at around 2 PM I expected the place to be at worst half filled. Much to my surprise it was full and it took a few minutes for us to get a table such is the popularity of this place. I was able to eat some corn soup, fried rice, fried chicken, pansit, squid. As expected the food was excellent and delicious. The food was hot and seemed newly prepared. The pricing of the food was reasonable considering that servings were quite large. Overall it was a pleasant experience and remains to be one of Baguio's best restaurants.
