Originally intended to serve as a much-needed green park, to provide a bustling city with a
peaceful environment with wide open green spaces, Burnham Park under Filipino administration
is now more of an amusement park with boating, bicycle and skating areas, sports and gaming
areas, plus a few eateries.

Burnham Park, the oldest park in Baguio, is a good place to take the kids with plenty of child-
friendly activities on offer. The grass and colourful flowers make it the ideal location to relax. For
kids, theres boating, skating, and biking as well as tennis courts, basketball courts and an
athletic oval. Theres also an orchid house, which is an interesting place to stroll around.
