The 49 best photo spots in Baguio

Burnham Park is the vibrant heart of Baguio, offering a lively park experience from day till night. By day, the atmosphere can be peaceful and tranquil, perfect for a relaxing escape from the city's hustle and bustle. The iconic man-made lake at the center of the park is a major draw, where visitors can enjoy leisurely boat rides in rowboats or swan-shaped paddle boats. I think most of the boats cost 200 pesos for 30 minutes. Even if you're going solo or with a group, it's fun to row around the lake. Beyond the lake, the park buzzes with life. You can rent bicycles of all kinds, from single bikes to tandem bikes, and pedal along the designated paths. The open spaces are ideal for a picnic, jogging, or simply strolling through the beautiful Rose Garden and other landscaped areas. At night, the park’s ambiance transforms. A portion of Harrison Road, adjacent to the park, closes to traffic and becomes the famous Baguio Night Market. The area fills with stalls selling a vast assortment of goods, from thrifted clothes and souvenirs to local handicrafts. It's a bustling hub for bargain hunters. The air also fills with the delicious aromas of various street foods, making the night market a must-visit for a lively culinary adventure. The park's dynamic nature ensures there's something to enjoy from morning till late evening.

One of the best museums I've been to and perhaps the best museum in the Cordillera Region. The place is also trendy and usually a lot of visitors on weekends. It has a cafe at the lower ground level adjacent to a beautiful garden.

Why come here: 1. Tam-awan Village is just nearby Stone Kingdom. Before or after visiting the Stone Kingdom which is often crowded, you can enjoy a more realistic mountain dwellers village. 2. This tourist spot showcases different types of village huts, beliefs, traditions and rituals of the mountain people. There is also a mini museum which displays paintings, figures and artifacts. 3. You can also enter one of the huts, but you have to observe the rules. A group of dancers wearing traditional Igorot clothing performs traditional dances for the tourists. The entrance fee is 100 pesos as of dec 2024 for adults it might change today. You have to climb and trek uphill to explore the village. The village is a forest itself and the steps are a bit slippery so be careful trodding uphill or downhill. You can enjoy the nature vibe while learning about the history and culture of the Igorots.

Baguio’s cool air always feels like a reset—but this Sunday, standing before the Baguio Cathedral, it felt like more than that. It was church #21 out of our 52 for the year, and this one stopped us in our tracks. The twin spires rising above Session Road, the soft pink façade, and the sweeping steps leading up—it looked like a postcard. But once inside, it was the silence that got me. Amid the stained glass and hushed prayers, my wife and I watched our three girls light candles beneath the statue of Our Lady of Atonement. They didn’t speak. They just stood in stillness—rare, beautiful stillness. For a dad, moments like that linger. This cathedral wasn’t just impressive—it was calming. It reminded me that amid our noisy schedules and long drives, grace still finds us in quiet corners. Church #21 left a mark. Not just because of how it looked, but because of how it made us feel: grateful, grounded, and just a little more whole.

It stands as a reminder to the blend of Chinese and Filipino cultures in Luzon. There is an entrance fee of 20 pesos for adult visitors, you also need to pay for the parking

We visited around 10 PM, and even at that hour, the place was already bustling with people. It was during the first week of July when we came, and the weather added a cozy atmosphere—it had been raining on and off throughout the day, and by nightfall, it was quite foggy with occasional light rain showers. Despite the weather, the area was lively and vibrant. There were plenty of food stalls offering a wide variety of options—from classic street food to local favorites—making it a great spot for late-night cravings. We also spotted several thrift stalls with interesting and affordable finds, perfect for those who love bargain hunting. The overall vibe felt festive and local, and the mix of food, shopping, and people made the experience enjoyable. Just make sure to bring an umbrella or jacket if you’re visiting during the rainy season, as the weather can be unpredictable. This place is definitely worth a visit if you want to experience Baguio’s night scene, especially if you’re up for food-tripping and a bit of shopping.

What a beautiful and well-maintained park 💗 We enjoyed our time here even though it was raining a lot. There are a lor of bathrooms and places to stay and eat. We enjoyed coffee by the cafe near the entrance of the park. Wear comfortable shoes since it’s also an eco trail (with pavement). I was with seniors so it took us about 2 hours to go around the park and it was raining too so we had breaks.

The Baguio Museum is an absolute gem! This expertly curated museum offers an unparalleled glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of the Cordillera region. The carefully selected artifacts and thoughtful displays provide a comprehensive and engaging overview of the area’s history and traditions. The staff’s exceptional kindness and attentiveness truly enhanced our visit, offering personalized guidance that brought the exhibits to life. Without a doubt, this museum stands out as one of the finest we’ve experienced in the Philippines, making it a must-visit destination in Baguio. Highly recommended for an enriching and memorable cultural experience!

Upon arriving, just need to register & give a donation if you can then you can start taking pictures & enjoying the view. No real parking but you don’t really spend too long so most people just park at the side with the hazard lights on. There’s a viewpoint & a little bridge where you can take photos. Best not to spend too long at the bridge so as not to inconvenience local people living in the area.

✨ **Igorot Stone Kingdom Experience** ✨ A wonderful place to explore with the family! 🏰 Surrounded by stone walls, terraces, and towers inspired by Cordillera culture, it felt like stepping into a storybook. The kids enjoyed walking around the pathways and taking photos in every corner 📸, while we adults appreciated the effort and artistry behind the structures. 🌲 Fresh air, wide spaces, and breathtaking mountain views made it worth the trip. Best to wear comfy shoes since there’s a lot of walking and climbing. 🙏 Overall, a beautiful reminder of our rich heritage and a great bonding experience. Definitely a must-visit when in Baguio with family. ❤️

Nice place to spend hours in. I have visited a historic house for John M Milton, around the house there is beautiful Garden, and I have been asking the security man on how to get to the Canopy ride, unfortunately, has been suspended l, but he said you can enjoy the horse riding if you are interested, also there is more than a hotel in the area and also visited Butterflies Sanctuary also nice to visit it’s nice you can take pictures for memories

This place would bring you back to American colonial period in the Ph. You can freely roam inside Gen. Bell’s house. Please don’t trash the place and follow the rules posted inside the house.

One of my favourite places because of the views and overall atmosphere there! Really enjoyed the food too! Everything was great, including the drinks and desserts that we had! The only thing that wasn’t good were the ebi tempura, but everything else made up for that! Will definitely be back here again!

September 13, 2025 around 12:30 pm A steep climb for a cyclist. I admit I hiked the last 300 meters to climb this area. Without Eddie Oribello's help, I won't reach this place. I prefer the time when they closed Kennon road to motorists. It has just reopened so tourists flock this monument. I should've biked here when the road was closed. What I love about this is there's no entrance fee, and you can take pictures of the statue free of charge. However, there are sections of the area when use with their props, you gotta pay them. There are a lot of stores and stalls: ice cream vendors, souvenirs, food, and props for rent for picture taking. There's also a restroom nearby. There's a railing by the cliff where you can view the panoramic view of Tuba, Benguet. This place is a go to of cyclists.

It's also a cemetery of puns! Such a pleasant surprise. Here are photos of the graves I could relate to.

I love buying vegetables at Baguio City Market—they’re incredibly affordable, both vegetables and fruits. It’s a great place for health-conscious people who enjoy salads, like me. The produce is always fresh. I make it a point to come here to buy vegetables every time I visit Baguio. The atmosphere is cheerful, and the people are friendly. The last time we came, we even caught a group doing Zumba and dancing right at the market—it was such a fun experience! Shopping here is truly enjoyable—not only are the prices low, but the cool weather also makes walking around comfortable. You won’t easily get tired or sweaty even if you take your time going from stall to stall.

One of the best places in Baguio - a must visit. There's a lot to see, plus the place is relaxing. The area open to public is enough to see how incredible the place is! But if you wish to explore more, there's an area with an entrance fee (optional). One downside, but hasn't affected my rating, is the location. It's best to be traveled by own car. I don't think there's public transportation available in the area. Another thing (beneficial for those traveling with children), a place that not everyone might have seen, is a playground situated near a parking space. It's open for the public. Will surely entertain children for free.

We've been to Baguio several times already but this is the first time I've visited Diplomat Hotel. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be. We weren't allowed to enter the building. It started raining when we arrived so we stayed a bit longer while waiting for the rain to subside. There was an area with food stalls but they are open only during the weekend. This is where we waited out the rain. The guy we talked to who managed one of the stalls said there's a live band also during the weekends. You can visit the Diplomat Hotel during the weekends and also go food tripping in the area. We got lost along the way and the Google Maps pin actually led us to the back of the hotel so make sure to pin the "Old Diplomat Hotel." Entrance is only P10/pax and parking is P10 for motorcycle.

My first time at this restaurant in Baguio. It was highly recommended by friends for its good food. We ordered soup, salad and mains. And yes, they were all good. We took home some frozen items from the deli and strawberry jams. The restaurant is located at the basement of a 1908 building which is also a hotel. We parked along the street in front of the establishment. But they do have a parking lot at the back of the property. It would be wise also to call and reserve before going.

At last they open it to the public.nice one.but you need to have advance registration to visit the place.and it's better to visit it on weekdays.and be there at least 30 mins before viewing time,may orientation pa kasi.and worth it because you learn many things about our past presidents.

Had dinner at Lemon and Olives Green Taverna, which was a pleasant walk from Baguio Country Club though taking a Grab is a smart option. The restaurant has a great vibe and we were lucky to arrive early enough to get seats at the veranda where the cool weather made the experience even better. We started with the Evia Salad with pomegranate pearls, dried Greek figs, walnuts, and feta cheese tossed with mixed greens and a sweet balsamic reduction. This was a standout and something I’d definitely order again. I had the Beef Souvlaki Plate served with pita bread, fries, and garlic, chili, and tzatziki dips. The flavor was alright though the beef was a bit chewy, so I’d probably try a different main next time. The chicken version was good though. We also ordered the hummus from their mezze selection which was good and served with warm pita bread. Overall, Lemon and Olives is a must-visit in Baguio with a relaxing ambiance and plenty on the menu to come back for.

The trip was smooth since there was no traffic and barely any people around. It was quiet and peaceful, which let me enjoy the place even more. Even with its ghosty background, it didn’t feel scary at all. It was actually calming to just be there and take in the silence.

The psychic was incredibly insightful. He tapped into things about my life that I had never shared with anyone. His guidance about my career path was so helpful, and I feel more confident moving forward now.

A place to unwind and relax. A good place for couples, friends and families. Pets are allowed inside. There's a wide space for parking. There's an entrance fee and a guide where to go. Lots of views to see especially if you're a nature lover. The place will bring you to the past/ history of the world. Some of the stations show the ruins which are one of the best places. I LOVE the place. It will bring PEACE OF MIND , HOLINESS, & CALM YOUR HEART. It's really a sanctuary place.

Mines View Deck in Baguio offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the Benguet mountains and old mining town sites. It’s a must-visit spot for first-time tourists, especially for photo opportunities and souvenir shopping. The view is stunning at sunrise, and there are plenty of stalls selling local crafts, snacks, and traditional attire for fun photo ops. Though often crowded, the scenic beauty and cultural vibe make the visit worthwhile. Just be prepared for some walking and expect cooler weather. It’s a perfect stop to appreciate the natural charm and history of Baguio.

Walked over to Choco-laté de Batirol which is a comfortable distance from Baguio Country Club and a nice stroll through the cool air. Tried their Palabok along with the traditional blend of Hot Choco. The palabok was tasty and the hot chocolate was exactly what you’d want on a nippy Baguio day, rich and warming without being too sweet. With its rustic setting and the cool weather, the whole experience felt very much like the Baguio many people look for. A pleasant stop for merienda or a warm drink.

Stepping into Café by the Ruins felt like walking into a living canvas—walls whispering stories, food plated like poetry, and coffee brewed with soul. Every bite was comfort laced with artistry, from their signature bread to bowls that carried flavors of Baguio’s roots. The ruins don’t just hold history—they hold warmth, a space where creativity, community, and cuisine sit together at the table.

The cafe is located at the ground level of the BenCab Museum art gallery. It has a great variety of food and drink selections. All with the view that is stunning and breathtaking. It is a perfect end to seeing artworks and styles of the Cordilleras. Highly recommended!

I went to Foggy Mountain Cookhouse in late April 2024. As an American traveling to the Philippines for the first time it was complicated but well worth the complexity of getting there. For foreigners trying to dine here there are some things you must know. The accessibility of the place is somewhat limited in terms of parking. The day you plan to go I recommend taking a taxi. There are many reputable taxi services in Baguio available on Facebook. Facebook is also how you will make your reservation and order in advance. It is a policy to order in advance to ensure availability. At least the time of year I went. It was not exactly tourist season so my date and I were the only ones in the restaurant. It was really lovely, it was as if I had rented out the whole place to ourselves. We were greeted by our waiter and he showed us to a table outside with a great view of the mountain. As the evening carried on the fog rolled in and soon it was just us. Although the view is less impressive in the fog it is still very beautiful seeing the lights from the adjacent mountain. Some mosquitoes came out and the waiter was very accommodating and put out two cups with about 15 mosquito incense sticks to repel them. We were given a buzzer to ring our waiter to take orders or ask for anything specific. I was at first a little confused but to make a long story short, after our dinner we learned that Chef Babes was on Vacation and his Sous Chef was both our Chef and Waiter. He was absolutely incredible and he cooked everything to perfection. I would love to come again to have some of Chef Babes food, but what we had was hands down the best meal I have had in my life. We had an appetizer of spaghetti, my date got the Steak cooked medium well and I got the Lamb Shank. The Lamb was one of the most tender and succulent pieces of meat that I have ever had. The mix of flavors in the sauce were absolutely incredible too. The Steak was also very good but if I go back I am getting that lamb every time. It was the first time I ever had lamb too so if you are considering it, I encourage you. This was the first time I had Cheese Ice cream in the Philippines, I had no idea about it before coming here and it was really delicious with the bacon, I LOVED it! The Strawberry Icecream is a classic there too. Being Baguio the strawberries are the best in the world. I am a strawberry hater in the U.S. but they are so amazing in Baguio. The pricing is expensive for a dish in the Philippines but this place has food that rivals the best restaurants I’ve been to in America, including Gordon Ramsay restaurants. Taken that into account it’s amazing value for money. This place is truly a Diamond in Baguio and I hope I can return someday. Thank You Po 🙏

If you come from Session Road, lined up with a lot of branded and popular resto and bakeshops, you will be awed when you enter Victoria Bakery in Mabini street. The place is really unlike every stall you passed by. It feels like you are inside a five star hotel bakeshop. The place looks new, clean, and very brightly lighted. The line of customers gives you the idea which product their bestsellers are. I got what i needed and was not disappointed by the flavor and quality. Though prices are affordable, you tend to spend more here because the display is very inviting; so practice self-control😄 Regarding the well reviewed cream puff, i was also pleased with my purchase. The filling is not overly sweet. It keeps well inside the ref even after traveling back to Manila. The filling did not seep into the pastry; it is still fresh and not too thick. They’re still ok in 2 days refrigerated; and good as cold dessert. I’m glad i took the risk😃

A chill day in Baguio? Mount Costa is the ideal place to be. While many tourists visit Baguio for exciting activities and delicious food, only a few come here to simply unwind and enjoy a laid-back experience. Just a short 30-minute drive from the City of Pines, Mount Costa in La Trinidad takes pride in being the “first unique stroll-around garden of the north.” It features lush outdoor green spaces filled with vibrant plants and flowers—something visitors of all ages can appreciate. Here, you can spend hours soaking in nature’s serenity, listening to the chirps of birds and the gentle sway of trees.

Dog friendly 🐶⭐️ Great view from balcony Staff was super nice Interesting exhibition at the entrance

A must visit place in Baguio City. Unlike other museums, the exhibits are just enough for someone who is strolling around or just paying a visit. The architecture is also great. The place has a very wide parking area even on weekends; a cafe and a bookshop also operate at the museum. The exhibition usually changes every year so you can keep coming back. Past Exhibits- Tatoo, Feast of Merit Present Exhibit Nov 2019 to Oct 2020: Cordillera Textiles

This charming little diner exudes a cozy and authentic vintage atmosphere. While smaller than your typical 50s Diner, its intimate size adds to its unique charm. The vintage decor and warm ambiance create a truly inviting experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, further enhancing the positive dining experience.

My favorite place to unwind and buy plants ❤️🌿🌺 You just have to know what plants you really want to buy, then find the right store. ☺️ Daming plants and meron din parking space sa loob.

Disclaimer: I may have a different preference from you. :) Located just within the compound of the Baguio Cathedral, it is a good brunch place to dine in after attending mass. I went here on a Sunday, 10:00 AM, and there were more than enough seats inside. It is a good place to take a peaceful meal if you're alone. I tried the Beef Kimchi Rice, hot latte, and red velvet croissant. The Beef Kimchi Rice is good. It's quite filling. I bought the red velvet croissant because that's also what the female server recommended when I asked about their best sellers. The cream cheese filling inside the croissant is not too sweet. That's probably the highlight of my meal here. Although on the pricey side, it's still good to visit Rebel Bakehouse if you're in Baguio to try out their pastries.

I have been passing by Redzel everytime on the way to my Condo but it was only today that i discovered that the Ube Haleya that Baguio can be proud of is just nearby. I just ordered the smallest bottle but the day isnt over yet and its almost finished, its that Good! And the Sweetness Level is just Spot On. Definitely my Favorite Ube Haleya now! And no long lines too! Ube Haleya last only 3 days at Room Temp but it will not even last a day! Lasts 7 days in the Fridge.

A great place to bring kids! My son enjoyed exploring the place. We paid P250.00 for 2 adults and 1 kid. Twas worth the visit! *The road going up is STEEP and it's one way. They do have a parking space but be very careful when you drive up the place. *Coffee shop is still being built as of our visit. Maybe it'll open very soon

We arrived at La Sabores Cartel at around 11 on a Saturday morning. This is just a walking distance from Mines View Park. The restaurant has a very good atmosphere and surroundings. The place is also clean and doesn't have any unpleasant smell. The staff were also polite and didn't have a bad attitude. We ordered beef birria for our snacks, it was served after 15 minutes. The beef birria was served with a bunch of sauces and freshly cut and cooked fries. It cost us around 330 pesos and it can feed two people. The consomme sauce was good especially when paired with the taco and the fries. Their habanero salsa tastes very good. It was hotter than other sauces as it should be and has the great balance of taste and spiciness. Their food is quite cheap but it does not affect the quality of their product. My partner and I had a great time dining with them. I highly recommend this restaurant.

THIS PLACE NEEDS MORE RECOGNITION!!! Such a hidden gem amongst the overly touristy places nearby. This is a must-visit!! Such an impressive collection of everything Volkswagen! There are 2 ways to reach the actual museum, one is thru a number of flights of stairs....and another easier route down the road, sa may kanto ng waiting shed, may daanan dun ng sasakyan and will lead straight to Campfolkswagen. We wish we knew about the 2nd route..hahah not gonna lie, going down that flight of stairs was kind of scary, but it did give us amazing views!! Upon arriving, you'll be immediately greeted by a customized motorcycle with a VW beetle rear and engine! My BF who is a car/motorcycle enthusiast was amazed right away! It was a great start. Ground Floor: CAFE We were in awe when we saw the view! It was so mesmerizing. It was really nice just sitting there in silence for a few good minutes and taking it all in. Watching the clouds roll on to the houses on top of the mountain. We ate at the cafe first. The cafe area was also filled with VW and other vintage memorabilia! Even the plant pots were painted with VW designs. There were also musical instruments you can try, such as kalimba and a drum. Food was good naman! Not as bad as other reviews here say. It was simple, but straightforward, in terms of taste. No frills. Lower Ground: MUSEUM & SHOP There was a city-wide blackout during our visit, so we didn't get pictures of the Museum part. But we still enjoyed it nonetheless. The displays were so interesting we really brought out our flashlights just to read and look at the displays. Was really really amazed at the concept of the timeline display, wherein key moments in PH history was enumerated alongside which VW model was popular at that time! It was amusing and at the same time, educational. I also like how each display was meticulously done, especially that Yolanda display, where the VW diecast display was made to look exactly like the picture. I think if it's possible to collect everything about Volkswagen, the owner has probably done it here. Lowest Floor: GALLERY Aside from being a collector, we learned here that the owner is also an artist! In the Gallery, were artworks, still all VW-themed. And there was also a workshop there. Super cool. We also got to talk to Sir Roland,the owner, collector and artist of the place. And we learned a lot about his interesting life and career. He is also a curator, has a background in architecture, also loves music, and is over-all a really cool guy. Really enjoyed our experience here, and I hope this place gets the recognition it deserves. Must be another Baguio destination staple! Ituhog nyo na pag pupunta kayo sa Igorot Stone Kingdom at sa Tam-awan Village! Pero kahit sadyain nyo lang sya ng mag-isa, worth it parin. Pramis!

I very much enjoyed my stay at Tudor in the Pines and the Pinecone Treehouse. The accommodations were clean and comfortable, private, and very Instagram worthy. The property truly is beautiful. What really stood out to me was the hospitality and kindness of the hosts and staff. I highly recommend this stay!
