I’ve actually been to Baguio for a few times already but my trip
to Bencab Musuem has always been
postponed. So last Nov 25, I got a chance to visit Baguio again and finally got
a chance to visit one of the most famous tourist spot in Tuba, Benguet, the Bencab
Musuem.
Bencab
Musuem is a home for the art collections the Philippine National Artist, Mr. Benedicto Cabrera. His 4-level
building museum exhibits lots of artworks from Mr. Bencab himself and other
contemporary artists too.
How to get there? Actually, we just
took a taxi going there. Ride was a bit long as I got really sleepy.. Maybe
about 30mins from our location (Gen. Luna Road).
Here’s
the garden and gazebo area which is a good place to chill, sit and relax. The
view was very breath taking and this is something I don’t get to see every day.
Here's a video/blog I made during my visit in Baguio:
Bencab
Musuem really tells us lots of interesting things about the culture and life in
Cordillera Region. Imagining all the efforts to make these are really fascinating.
Though I must admit, I wasn’t able to really appreciate the artworks due to
time constraint (was in Baguio for a day only and still have lots of places to
visit haha). Hope to stay longer at Bencab Musuem once I visit Baguio again
(maybe next year? Haha).
