Pink Sisters’ Convent and Chapel

Reviewed By samboymacalma9 - Baguio, Philippines

Of the many churches that Baguio is known for, Pink Sister's Convent and Chapel is well-known and adored as it has been a witness to any answered prayers in any form - personal supplication, professional promotion, examinations, health and wellness wishes, and even relationships. An hour mass at the said church will surely make you feel spiritually full. The solemnity of the mass which is accentuated by the penchant of the sisters in chorus creates a very heavenly atmosphere that sets the tone by which deep personal prayers are uttered and sent.

Mount Jumbo

Reviewed By I2461TSashleyp

Locally known as Mount Yangbew, this hike is a wonderful trip off the beaten path. I recommend going early in the morning as the colors of the sky are beautiful at that time. The afternoons are often cloudy. The hike is short but hard and completely worth it. There are a few parking spaces up the cemented part of the road. After that street parking is available on the shoulder before turning up to Yangbew.

Mount Ulap

Reviewed By maevelenasendin - Baguio, Philippines

Whether you are looking for bonding with family or just plain nature trip, this is a wonderful trail to experience and explore both. Super worth every penny to complete the trail. Trail is rated 3/10 but I will say it is 4 or 5 for beginners like us. Some tips on mountain climbing techniques are a must, like keep a pace that suits your body, don’t drink too much water at once, just enough to keep your throat wet, breathe through nose and not mouth come in handy when you are doing any climbing activity. Most important start early as sun can take a toll even if temp is 12 to 15 deg. We arrived at 9 and finished by 1:30pm, of course with numerous stops to catch a breath or sooth our aching muscles.

Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto

Reviewed By FirstTimerHochiminh - Pasay, Philippines

Whether you are a catholic or a non-catholic visiting the Grotto is highly recommended. Aside from fulfillment of going up catching your breath, once you reach the icon of the Lady of Lourdes, the breathtaking view of the nearby area and the grotto itself is mesmerizing. You will never regret going up when your are already on your way down the hill. Say a prayer in the chapel, light a candle or place a prayer request in the envelopes provided, if you are a believer then its a must.

Baguio City Market

Reviewed By hklbrodis - Edmond, United States

Took some foreign friends here and they enjoyed it. It's been years since I was here. It looks waaay better now. People are really friendly. They were giving honest regular prices to the foreigners (unlike other tourist places I've been in around the world where they rob the foreigners!) I accidentally dropped some money when I paid for something I bought. A stranger eventually found me and handed me the money I dropped. Vendors were really nice with giving discounts. Don't be shy in asking. Best place to buy coffee. They buy coffee from farmers (cooperative) so it's as fair trade and local as you can get (unless you buy straight from farmers). I bought some ground coffee beans in a small vaccum foil packaging so I can bring it back to my teachers in America. If you're looking for quality hand-woven Sagada bags, here's where you can find them. Just ask around and they'll point you to upstairs stalls where you can buy them. They're a bit pricey but the quality is definitely worth it! If you want pasalubongs, you can get them from here too. No need to go to the convent to buy their special ube jam.
