About Our Beloved Baguio City

Metro Baguio is more than just a place; it is a wholesome experience every year - all year round!

The weather
Baguio is the place to be in summer – and its summer in Baguio all year round. It occasionally rains in the dry months of January to June and it generously shines in the wet months of July to December.
However you look at it, the weather is generally an occasional rain all summer. Just enough to keep everything fresh and blooming. An occasional sun, sand and sea experience is just an hour away.

The sights
Metro Baguio has more to offer than any other city its own size. It was built to be a place to rest and enjoy life. Who will not enjoy a home kissed by clouds so often? Whether man-made or a natural endowment, all of Baguio is a sight to see. It is the only city in the country which, back in the 1900’s, was planned and designed. The city has grown beyond its original concept, but so are the places to see.

The people
Friendly, meek, peaceful. The central district is a bit cosmopolitan; a melting pot of people who came to Baguio and made it their home. The villages will be a trip back in time – and they are not far away. Centuries old traditions persists, yet blending with modern times; conservative yet very 21st century, like natives dancing traditional dances in Levi’s jeans.

The institutions
Whatever your reasons for building a home, Baguio’s got them all. Schools, parks, nature, weather, recreation, retirement, shopping, business, language, etc…Baguio offers the best options north of Metro Manila. Thinking of your children’s future? Baguio has some of the best schools. Thinking about retirement? Baguio has some of the best recreational and health care facilities in the country. Thinking of business? Baguio is wired up for the internet age.

it might have been true ten years ago...in my own observation, baguio is now moving slowly away from its original state.too many people become too fond of its weather and ambiance that too many people are flocking the city.
Anyhow, the weather of baguio is not as freindly as before since nature is nearly being exploited.Trees are now replaced by buildings used as business centers that may provide job opportunities.Job opportunities that do not give much chances to baguio or even benguet natives to enjoy, but most probably gives way to people living outside the cordillera province..what a pathetic condition we have..
The once cleanest and greenest city is now a mile away from becoming one of the most crowded and unpleasant city.
But maybe, just maybe, with the unity of the people and the city ordinances being proposed, approved, and implemented, BAguio would restore its grandeur...
