Next is The Mansion. Just dropped by to take some  pictures. Not allowed to go inside but it's free.

Wright park is one of the best place to have a pre-nuptial photo shoot :)

Burnham park is the most visited park in Baguio. Ride a boat for fun!

Many flower's stall are standing along the hiway and so surprised I got a bouquet from my bf!
