he City of Baguio (Ilokano: Ciudad ti Baguio; Filipino: Lungsod ng Baguio) is a highly urbanized city in northern Luzon in the Philippines. Baguio City was established by Americans in 1900 at the site of an Ibaloi village known as Kafagway. Baguio City was designated by the Philippine Commission as the Summer Capital of the Philippines on June 1, 1903 and incorporated as a city by the Philippine Assembly on September 1, 1909. There is a presidential mansion, as well as supreme court and legislative offices in Baguio. Baguio is the seat of government of the Cordillera Administrative Region. The name of the city is derived from the word bagiw in Ibaloi, the indigenous language of the Benguet Region, meaning 'moss'. The city is at an altitude of approximately 1500 meters in a moist tropical pine forest conducive to the growth of mossy plants and orchids.

The three main access roads leading to Baguio from the lowlands are Kennon Road, Marcos Highway, and Naguilian Highway. Kennon Road starts from Rosario, La Union and winds through a narrow, steep valley. This is the fastest route to Baguio but is dangerous, with landslides during the rainy season. Marcos Highway, which starts from Agoo, La Union, and Naguilian Highway, which starts from Bauang, La Union, are longer routes but are safer than Kennon Road and are the preferred routes for coaches, buses and lorries. The city of Baguio is known for its mild climate. It's called the summer capital of the Philippines.

Baguio is a university town. It is the center of education in the entire North Luzon. There are eight major institutions of higher education in Baguio City, one of which is the Northern Luzon campus of the University of the Philippines, which is regarded as the country's premiere institution of higher learning and research.

The University of the Philippines, Baguio (U.P. Baguio) is a premier institution of higher learning and research in the Philippines and Asia.

UPB is committed to leading the region in setting academic standards, and serving as a leader in public service and responsible citizenship, and the enhancement of national identity.

The city became a haven for many Filipino artists in the 1970s-1990s. Drawn by the cooler climate and lower cost of living, artists such as Ben Cabrera (now a national artist) and filmmaker Butch Perez relocated to the city. At the same time, natives such as mixed-media artist Santiago Bose and filmmaker Kidlat Tahimik were also establishing work in the city.
