ReplyDelete@angel, I can't suggest a best time but it's recommended that you reserve your hotel accommodations as early as possible. Be sure to see the float parade!! See yah!
ReplyDelete@angel, oh by the way, it is also one of the coldest month here in baguio so don't forget to bring thick clothes! hehe
