Kennon Road

March 15th, 2009 · No Comments

Last January, we were in Baguio for a short trip. MrC was able to video the whole scenic stretch of Kennon Road coming down from Baguio. To everyone who is not familiar with Kennon Road, this is the most scenic winding road to take if you are going Baguio. There are other alternative roads which are safer and easier to drive but this has got to be the road that is part of many childhood memories for me and for others. According to history, this was a landmark construction effort led by Col. Lyman Kennon along with highly skilled Japanese, American and Filipino builders. The road was completed in 1905. I am sure you would like this video. Enjoy!
