Temple from Baguio's Bell Church

I’ve never really heard of ‘Bell Church’ from Baguio, and as my boyfriend says, it’s one of Baguio’s secrets. It’s not as crowded as Session Rd., Burnham, and the likes of the famous places to go to in Baguio.

How to go there

Located at the border of La Trinidad, Benguet and Baguio. You can grab a taxi from SM to take you there. Fee should only be about 50 to 70 pesos. We came from Camp 7 then, and our total taxi fare was less than 70 pesos only.

What to See

Bell church is a Taoist church, and is open to public at 7am to 5pm, I think.  We went there this December 26th, and it was open. A narrow street is the passage to Bell church’s entrance. In there, the walls of the church are  designed with Dragon statues

It has a Chinese garden inside, available for visitors to roam.

Only touring is allowed in Bell church. haha

The church has two main temples, and three life size statues of two chinese God’s and a buddha, in addition to that is a wishing pool and stair case with chinese scriptures in it. It also has two pagoda’s sitting atop of a hill inside the Bell Church compound.
