Baguio is a known American summer destination during its colonial heydays. But it also has a rich native Cordillerean culture in its ancient and pre-colonial times. Combine this two and what do you have? Let's go find out..
Bridal Veil Falls. Waterfall wonder.
You can actually see it every time you go up to Baguio. Mayor Zamora could have seen it after he evaded the quarantine checkpoint. If he wasn't sleeping... Hehe.

Ifugao Rice Terraces. UNESCO world heritage.
Older than the pyramids of Egypt, the combined length of the terraces is said to equal half the circumference of the earth. 8th wonder of the world. 8 hours from Baguio. Bus fare costs between PhP 380 to 480. 8 is a Chinese lucky number, you know. Ok, just saying.

Balatoc mines. Gold mining.
You want to mine for gold? Yup, you can try. Why not? Welcome to a gold mining adventure inside a long tunnel. Nope, don't think Yamashita gold was hidden there.

Mount Costa. Good day for a walk.
There are places just outside the city worth seeing. One of this is a big outdoor living room with about a dozen gardens inspired by the world's best. Really, really big. Did I say that already?

Bell Church. Chinese Temple.
Want to go where kung fu movies were filmed in Baguio? Best time to go is Chinese New Year but they also have mini cultural festivals/shows on weekends.
