This is my first time to visit Baguio’s famous Lourdes Grotto, Edmund’s second. He said he was still small when he came here with his parents.

It’s located on top of a hill with a panoramic view of the city’s western part . There’s a road leading to the top but it’s off limits to the public.

You may drive half-way or choose to punish your knees by climbing all the way to the top. I wasn’t able to count the number of steps.

I bought 5 pieces of candles for P20 from the street vendor outside. Meron pala dito sa loob, P3 each.
