Do people who experience Burnham park know that it is a heritage historical park?

Or just go there for other reasons: friends, or it is close to the CBD wherein Baguio is
favorable in terms of the geographical location of the park where people going to
the market and session ended up to Burnham park unlike other cities whose park
has long proximity of the park to their CBD. wherein even the old people of Baguio
has little knowledge about the park al they know that it was establish right after the
charter of Baguio.
Daniel H. Burnham who designed the city of Baguio stayed in Baguio just a few
moments for ocular inspection. Burnham is an architect whose fun of axis, like
straight line for example the axis at City hall has a continuous vision towards
government center which was destroyed by the pedestrian overpass. He envisions
the City Hall and The Government axis to be in one axis joining Brent school
towards Right park. But unfortunately the plan was not followed. The park was in
the assumption that the population of Baguio will not reach todays number because
it was really design for 25000 people only. Its not made to be a top city or a
business city and expected to end its population at 50000.
The Burnham park was just design for 25000 to 50000 people where it is the reason
why Burnham park was being overcrowded. The park was made also because of the
natural features of Baguio. Many things in Baguio affected the uses of Burnham
park, trees can create excitement to the people going to the park
Path, portal place,

sudden you see place Visual because you experienced it You can made it by natural
means like plants and flowers your experience in place can change because of time

interrelating thing that will blend them together
