The century old City of Baguio was established in 1909 by the Americans as a SPA. Baguio was originally called "Bag-iw" - that means "moss" since Baguio had abundance of moss especially in creeks. The Americans pronounced Bag-iw as Baguio which the City adopted to this time. The American soldiers from the lowlands go up Baguio for respite and rejuvenation. It was planned to be a haven for about 25,000 but is currently populated by about 301,000 people. Some of the public facilities are named after American like the Burnham lake named after Daniel Burnham. The Kennon Road and many others found in the City
