Benguet Pine Trees at Camp John Hay

The beauty of Baguio City is seeing the Benguet Pine Trees. Never mind if it’s already crowded in the city but here at Camp John Hay, it’s a relief to be surrounded by nature. It’s a perfect place for family picnics. What used to be the rest-and-recreation base of American military personnel, the Camp is being transformed into a world-class resort and is also Baguio’s biggest pine tree conservation area. According to my husband, the Americans planted the Benguet pine trees which grew rapidly through the years. But Benguet pine is also found in the high mountain areas of southeast Asia including Assam and Burma, southern Vietnam
