One of the greatest things about having this city as my hometown is being able to take part in the month-long annual celebration of Panagbenga - or the Flower Festival.
The said festival is truly one of the sources of pride of people from Baguio. A fairly young tradition, the Flower Festival was created in 1995 with the intent to institute a celebration that would embody the identity of the city and its citizens, and at the same time reflect the city's culture and heritage. It was also meant to attract tourists from all over the country to familiarize themselves with the city and its people. They chose to call the festival Panagbenga-- as a tribute to the early roots of the city - which means "season of blooming."
Panagbenga always begins with an opening parade wherein representatives from different groups in the city take part in.
Marching bands from different schools in the city provide the beat that the parade follows, while people from government or business sectors flaunt their colorful costumes meant to embody the kaleidoscopic flowers that the city is commemorating.
