BAYANIHAN REPUBLIC:
I can't recall how many times I've been to
Baguio, which is dubbed as the Summer Capital of the Philippines by the
Americans in the early part of 20th Century. But going to this
wonderful place never bored me. Thinking of its distinct
characteristics -- the scenery, the weather, the people, the goods just
continue to amaze and magnetize me.

| Baguio, formerly known as Kafagway, is 1,500 meters above sea level and is located at the Cordillera Administrative Rregion (North Luzon Island) of the Philippines. A highly urbanized city, Baguio was declared the Summer Capital of the Philippines because of its cold weather brought about by its altitude. |

A few years back, I got the interest to
go to Baguio during its Panagbenga Festival (Flower Festival) because
of a scene I saw in the romantic comedy movie of Aga Muhlach and Regine
Velasquez :). I was amazed with what I saw and I told myself, how come
I've never been to Baguio during this time! Oh well, there's never too
late for TaDi's Bayanihan Republic. So here's the adventure!
