Mines View Park is situated on the northeastern peripheries of Baguio City in the Philippines. It is precisely located four kilometers away from downtown Baguio. Many travelers who come to visit Mansion or Wright Park never miss visiting Mines View Park as the two parks are very near. Fog starts encompassing the park during afternoon for some months, so any visit should be made earlier during the day.
