True to being the Summer Capital of the Philippines, Baguio never disappoints its visitors to give them a cool breeze they’ve been craving in the humid city. But aside from this, what pulls travelers to visit Baguio are the beautiful tourist spots that take people’s breath away. One of these attractions is the Baguio Botanical Garden.

Unlike other attractions, nothing much happens in this Baguio tourist destination. But that’s actually what people go there for aside, of course, from the beautiful ponds, vibrant flowers that bright up the day, and towering pine trees that are totally perfect as backdrops for the ‘gram!

About Baguio Botanical Garden
The Botanical Garden in Baguio is one of the most beautiful tourist destinations in the city. It gives visitors a respite from the busy city life through its calming ambiance. There are plenty of pine trees lined up in the area, bright flowers, sculptures depicting the different rituals of the Cordillera tribes, and the Igorots who are more than willing to take a photo with you for a small fee.

The Botanical Garden Baguio history started many years ago. Before being known to what it is today, this botanical garden Baguio City had many names—Igorot Village (for the different Cordillera huts and statues that decorated the park); Imelda Park (named after then First Lady of the Philippines for such a long time); Botanical & Zoological Garden (was said to have been a zoo); and, most recently, Centennial Park (in celebration of 100 years of Baguio City).

Upon arriving at the Botanical Garden Baguio tagalog, you will be welcomed by a stunning sculpture made of stone painted in bronze that depicts the different rituals of the Cordillera tribes, and real Igorots dressed in their traditional clothes willing to take a photo with you for a minimal fee.

Once you’re inside, you will see several gardens, an art gallery, and souvenir stalls selling native handicrafts lined up in a row. Then you’ll also see the different relics from Botanical Garden’s Igorot Village days with large statues showing different Cordillera tribesmen and symbols, and the native Cordillera huts.
