For Christian tourists, a trip to Baguio is not complete without visiting the Baguio Cathedral. Located on top of a hill at the heart of the City, the rose-colored Baguio Catholic Cathedral is one of the more familiar and most visited landmarks of Baguio. This beautiful structure has twin spires and is one of the most photographed buildings in the city.
Here are some pics I have taken at the Cathedral:

At the back of the Cathedral is a statue dedicated to Our Lady of Atonement. For what I have gathered (read: googled)the construction of the cathedral by phases was begun on a hill which was originally referred to as "Kampo" by the native Ibalois. It was later called Mount Mary by a Belgian Catholic Mission and was finally consecrated in 1936.
So, when in Baguio, do not forget to say your prayers at the biggest catholic church in the City - The Baguio Catholic Cathedral.
A very nice Cathedral!
