Baguio Botanical Garden
About
A cool, green breather a few minutes from downtown Baguio! The Botanical Garden is a hillside of pine trees, flower beds, bamboo paths and native Cordillera huts, with a short World War II tunnel dug by Japanese soldiers tucked inside. It's an easy, shady walk for families, a pretty stop for couples, and it's right on the way to Mines View and Wright Park. Go in the morning when the air is crisp and the paths are quiet!
Dry until sunset (5:33 PM). Good time to go!
