our lady of atonement cathedral

Nice and beautiful church. It has a good view. The choir is great too. Masses varies from English to Ilocano.

On the way back to the city, it's always best to give thanks for the safe journey to...and pray for a safe journey back. You don't have to worry about parking, the parking is paid if you exceed 1 hour. The parking is guarded so you can be assured of your belongings in your car. Access is easy, you just have to maneuver that sharp right turn on a steep incline :-)The renovation works are wonderful and made the Church even more beautiful.

The Cathedral is very visible when one is already within the vicinity of Session road. It could be reached by walking and staircase and can park at the top when in private vehicle. It has distinct architecture that is becoming synonymous to Baguio, very iconic and inviting. I have not found any design in my many and most church visits so far. I also observed that its always open whatever time of the day i would pass by. It has food stalls and plants on sale. It is solemn inside. When i attended the mass it was in Ilocano. I am not sure if they conduct also in english or tagalog. Need to improve the condition and freshness of the Comfort rooms.

It is a beautiful old church were thousands of masses had been held. It is achitecturally beautiful on the outside as it is on the inside. It has a lot of warmth and love. Anf, it makes you feel very comfortable and relax...at ease spiritually and emotionally.

One of the places you must stop by to admire and offer your prayers. Tip: Go inside Porta Vaga mall and take the escalator going up the cathedral to avoid the stairs.

I and fellow travelers included this in our itinerary as our priority first thing on a Sunday Morning. We went here to attend mass after taking breakfast in a nearby fast food place.LOCATION: The Church is very visible in the city center. It is a walking distance from SM Baguio; just near Zola Cafe and Jollibee.TRANSPORTATION: We just walked towards the Church as it is only a walking distance from our hostel. There are jeepneys and taxis available around the area.HIGHLIGHTS: It's a nice place to take pictures in front of the Church. Just make sure you don't make foolishness and be boisterous in laughing, it's a holy place. It's a good place to attend mass in the mornings.

Very nice place to take pictures. and when the bell sound. You think your in Rome. I was able to take many good pictures. Had a nice visit.

Stopped here while walking around session road. Nice peaceful place to say your thanks and prayers. No worry about parking they have enough parking space.

I advise climbing the stairs all the way to the top as it puts the mind into a prafeyrful or meditative state. Or if you have a car, the provision of a free parking area for those staying for less than an hour makes visiting this place very convenient. Another choice would be to take the escalators inside the Porta Vaga building to get you to the top. The inside of the church is solemn enough for praying especially in the early morning when patrons are few. The outer and inner architecture are well-preserved. In a very commercialized section of the city, the Cathedral offers a quiet place for anyone to rest, pray and marvel.

It features a distinct new age architecture which is very different from the usual Colonial styles of Philippine Catholic Churches. The stained glass windows on the altar is one of its remarkable fixture. For Catholics, it is best to see thecathedral everytime you visit Baguio. You surely will find serenity and peace while you are inside the church building!

Presently, (late October,2014) getting a paint job. It sits majestically on top of a hill facing the south. There is a steep stairway that connects it to Session Road.

whenever i go to place if its my first time or after not visiting for a long time i always want to go to the church first to give thanks.. it is a solemn place to think and give praise.. the church itself is historic by its look and very beautiful..

First stop whenever I go up to Baguio to give Thanks to God for a safe trip. I love attending masses here too.

This church has a beautiful architecture. Impressively built and located on top of a hill that makes it towering, it's a good vista when your looking at it from afar. The church compound has a viewdeck with a commanding view of Baguio City. There are a lot of ways to get to the church, either from Fr. Carlu St. right to the main entrance or from Session Road where you need to work your way up a long stairs (more than a hundred steps) to the church, which is tiring but healthier and more fun, best for those who are health concious.When we went to the church to hear the Sunday mass during our visit we took the long stairs from Session Road, not because we're health buff, but just for the sake of experiencing it. Taking the stairs is like repenting your sins. Hehe! The mass was said in Ilocano, the local dialect. On the way back to the hotel, we took the easiest way out.

Walking distance from SM Baguio, church was being renovated when we visited in Sept 2014. I noticed that there were no peddlers selling stuff within the church premises which is good that it was solemn and you could really pray and repent unlike in other churches in touristy places.
