Yep. Philippine
Military Academy (PMA) might sound
overrated already for tourists but this is actually the first time I've visited
the place. I think it is a must to visit the school when you are in Baguio. So
what's to look forward to at PMA by first timers?
The old war tanks
was out first stop. If history really interests you, they have labels for each
tank of when and where it was used (I think, but it surely has information on
it just forgot to take a pic hehehe). And most of these tanks dates back to World War I & II, I guess.
Pine Trees
PMA is probably one
of the best place to view Pine Trees, where trees looked like it was planted uniformly.
This is one of old
trees I've spotted. :D
Tree House
This tree house
gives a really nice view from the top. :D
The Academy has got
nice buildings where you can snap a shot.
Boodle Bar
Try to visit the
Boodle Bar, we stopped here to have some snacks. They also sell souvenirs,
mostly shirts and jackets with PMA imprints.
And this is the
simple clock that intrigued me, which is found inside the Boodle Bar. The hands
of this clock moves counterclockwise, see the numbers are written from 12-1.
According to the store manager, this clock can only be found in PMA and was
purposely put there as a conversational piece. It does make a good conversation
starter!
And so, what's the
use of visiting PMA if you haven’t got a picture with the students. You might
wonder, but those PMA cadet beside me are girls. They just need to maintain
that kind of haircut.
Students here were
really trained to be stiff, see there's only the three of us who cared to
smile. Hehehehehehehe. But they were really nice to stay with us and bear a
series of shots.
Speaking of
buildings, as I mentioned earlier, they've got really nice architectural
designs. Like the one I posed on. The whole building looked like it can be
found in other countries cause it has that Korean-sort-of appeal. :D
PMA Musuem
PMA Museum was just
near the Boodle Bar. We only paid 40 pesos each for entrance fee. You probably
know what to see in the museum so no need to describe what's inside. I'll write
a separate post about it anyway. Hehehe
Others
You'll appreciate
the nice road they got there. As well as...
The view of the
mountain with that thick clouds or fog (or might be a mix of both). :D
