ACTIVITY 1: TRAVELOGUE
Baguio was a former mining town in the early 20th century. To get a glimpse of that past, you
have to visit Mines View Park. This park sits on a ridge on the northeast side of Baguio.
As such, its main attraction is a viewing deck that offers a stunning view of the Cordillera
Mountains and Benguet’s old copper and gold mines. Tourists are given a chance to dress
intraditional Ifugao garbs like bahag (loincloth), vests, and headdresses, and even hold a shield
and spear for picture-taking.
