Hi emerald
I've been to this place before but I was only 3 or 4 years old something, that was a family vacation. I can still remember how cold the place was. I wish to visit this great place in the near future.

Hi asiacevillar. The place still reaches 13 degree celsius but maybe due to growing population and industry, we ca experience hot to moderate hot weather from time to time:) I hope you can still really visit:)

Yes emerald. Baguio had undergone drastic changes over the years.When I was young, I can feel the coolness of the weather even before getting to the city itself. Houses have replace the many pine trees that were once occupying the mountain side. The only place I could see these trees in great numbers is in Loakan area. The place has become urbanized. Lots of trees are cut off just to give way to structures erected.

I've been to Baguio three times when I was a toddler, 4 years ago and just last May. The best thing about Baguio for me is its Ukay Havens! I swear I could spend a full day rummaging through each stalls to bag some quality cheap finds.
It's kind of sad to see how populated Baguio has become it's starting to look like Metro Manila over there. When I first visited Baguio as a little kid there was still a lot of natural scenery even within the town proper but now there's an SM and a lot of man made structures...
