Press Release Body = Baguio City is mostly famous for its cool climate; hence, this highland city was dubbed as the Philippines' summer capital. Each year, both domestic and international travelers traditionally pack their bags from the months of February to June - when the temperature in the country intensifies - for a refreshing exodus to this nippy city.
Over time, Baguio City was able to establish itself as one of the major tourism hubs in the Philippines. Local and foreign visitors alike flock to the Burnham Park, Camp John Hay, Mines View Park, the Mansion (the Philippine President's summer home), and other happening places like Session and Legarda roads.
While people initially remember Baguio as a place where temperatures never register above 26 degrees Celsius, the city is also popular because of its lush flora. This climate, together with the country's natural tropical setting, is the ideal environment for trees, plants, and flowers to grow in. As such, Baguio also boasts of scenic landscapes and tourist spots like the Botanical Garden.
In 1995, all sector of society hailing from government, education, business, media, and civic organizations, conceptualized the idea of a flower festival in Baguio City. Thus, the Panagbenga Festival was born. For the whole month of February annually, Baguio City bursts with vibrant colors from the parades, the flower floats, and the costumes from native residents. Festival activities plus markets are abundant and heightened particularly on the weekends of the celebration's tenure.
Obviously, the hospitality industry becomes just as busy before and during Panagbenga. El Cielito Inn - Baguio, one of the finest lodging establishments within the city, prepares to welcome the expected influx of guests. With facilities for both leisure and business travelers - especially during the Panagbenga Flower Festival - guests will be delighted for a truly spectacular stay.
