The park was a central feature of Baguio when the city was first planned and developed as a retreat for the US military, and remains today as a beloved landmark. Baguio, with its mild climate, is a popular tourist destination for Filipinos seeking a retreat from the heat of the lowlands, and Burnham Park serves as a major attraction for both relaxation and recreational activities.

Burnham Park, officially known as the Burnham Park Reservation, is a historic urban park located in downtown Baguio, Philippines.
 
One of the activities there is riding on a rental boat in a man- made lagoon. We rented the boat for 150 pesos for one hour.There are swans and other boats that are merely inspired from fairytale and cartoon characters. It was a great experience trying to ride a boat in Burnham Park and the thrill is when no one knows how to paddling it. It has an excellent weather, Cool and relaxing.  
Try to ride a rental bikes that cost 50 pesos. Some areas were crowded but that’s part of the fun.  
You can also try the dress of the igorot people there that cost 25 pesos.  
Some photos from Rose garden. Tranquil natural area full of trees and beautiful flowers where visitors enjoy walking and do selfies around the areas. It also has a three dancing fountains in the middle. 23

                   Truly an AMAZING experience to go to what they called as the “Mother Park”. The park was really big, the food was delicious, the activities was extremely fun and it includes beautiful scenery because the trees and flowers are well managed. Hope that you can also visit and try the different activities they offer with your whole family especially during summer. The place needs more comfort rooms and trash bins around the areas because the park was really big and there are many tourist, especially kids.
