Landmarks – the Lion’s Head, Kennon Road

The main landmark along Kennon Road is the Lion’s Head. I think most people heading to or coming from Baguio have taken a photo of if not with the Lion. Here are photos I took as we descended from Baguio via Kennon Road last December 2024 after participating in a workshop.

Approaching the Lion’s Head along Kennon Road, the monument appears to be under maintenance with scaffolding around the head.

An entire section is cordoned off, likely for tourists or visitors. The lane though looks newly paved, perhaps part of a road widening project.

A closer look of the Lion’s Head and the touristy things in the area. Notice there weren’t too many tourists at the time and there weren’t so many shops and vendors set-up.

Among the activities are dressing up in local costume and taking photos wearing these with the mountains or the monument in the background.

 

 

Happy New Year 2025!

Before I start writing again about transportation, traffic and related topics, I just want to greet everyone a Happy New Year!

My walking route includes a street where one of the houses has this starburst plant. I always think of this as nature’s version of showing fireworks that don’t actually involve fire.
