BenCab Museum

Baguio City Where To:

BenCab Museum

BenCab museum is  one of the most recommended tourist spots here in Baguio City. If you're up to some mind relaxation and rejuvenation, why not visit the museum which is located along Km. 6 Asin Road, Tadiangan, Tuba, Benguet.

It features the talent of local and national artists in the country. You can also find Cordilleran inspired crafts like wooden carvings and the like. A lot of tourists loved their stay at the museum and so this is a place where you should go when you're in Baguio.

Give it a try before you judge the place. I'm also not into arts and those kind of stuff but I had fun when we went there. They feature a lot of crafts, arts, paintings, and photographs that will surely entertain you and make you want to make a masterpiece of your own! There are three main parts of the museum that you can go to:

1. The Artworks

Before you can take a tour at BenCab museum there's an entrance fee of Php 100 per person. The place is clean and peaceful. They also have clean restrooms in every floor and so there's not much to worry. Most of the pieces are arranged according to the artist or theme. There's a lot of fun crafts that you can take pictures with but of course I won't spoil the fun. 

2. The Garden

BenCab museum also have a wide and scenic garden where you and your friends can hang out and take more pictures. The weather in Baguio is hard to predict and it usually rains in the afternoon. It is better to go there in the morning or after lunch.

3. The Cafe

The museum also have a café to serve their guests and visitors. Café Sabel offers mainly pastas, pastries, sandwich, and drinks at an affordable price. I did enjoy their blueberry cheesecake and coffee.

Going to BenCab Museum

The museum is located at Asin and is at the left side of the road when you're from town. A piece of advice, the last time I went there (April 2015), the road was under construction so I do recommend you to take a detour along Naguilian road. You can also ride a jeep for a cheaper fee. The jeepney going to Asin is located behind Abanao square mall.

I did enjoy my visit at the museum and I hope you'll have fun too. It's a very nice and cozy place where you can enjoy scenic views, professional craftsmanship, and creative skills. If you're tired of seeing buildings or going to the mall and would like to go some place more quiet then BenCab museum is definitely one where you can go. Thank you for visiting the page and I'm glad to be of help!
