Baguio stories

A lot have been said about Baguio. But we'll dig a little deeper about the stories behind it. Like why the streets and parks have American names while Manila has Spanish ones.. why heritage houses and monasteries became haunted.. favorite restos of city folks. And then we start to appreciate the city more.

Tam-awan Village. The native village of the arts.

Hidden from the busy Session Road is the rich cultural heritage of Baguio. Nope, you don't have to go up Cordillera mountains to find it. It's just nearby. Calling you. "This is the real Baguio before the Americans came. Not Burnham Park."

Lemon and Olives. Authentic Greek, what else?

Don't know what to do today? Eating out is still OK, I hope. Try Greek then. Level up a little from that never-ending Baguio budget meals we eat since Good Taste started it.

The Baguio Planner.

Baguio was originally designed for 30,000 people. Now, it has almost half a million with more than a million more when tourists arrive. Do the math. Guess we need another Burnham. Nope, not the park.
