It is quite far from the city. And as of August 2022 (during our visitlimited people are allowed in the area since the Kennon is no longer used as way going down to Manila.We were the only tourist during our visit, so you do not have to wait that long to take photos

Crowdy, but the place is still nice. Proof that you went to Kenon road.

This is a 40ft limestone sculpture by a Cordilleran artist commissioned by the Baguio Lions Club (a civic organization of the wealthyduring the dark era of martial law. Its a giant club ad and its become a landmark since then. Although I think a lion doesnt fit in the Philippine context. But this is a cute stop along Kennon Road. Kids would love this. The views beside the lion showcase the mountain ranges. Theres a parking lot for 10 or more vehicles beside the Lions head. Not much to do here except take pictures and go. You can also support the local vendors by purchasing pasalubong.

Very underwhelming experience, the queue is very long and very crowded. It looks good in pictures and hearsays, but looks very disappointing in person

Good experience. Were lucky that Kennon road already opened after the earthquake incident this July 2022. None much are affected in Baguio.

If your lucky enough when you pass by the head theres few people you cant get your photo beside it. Unfortunately when we passed its already late and there a lot of people there so i took this way far away (so that our car wont block the road since there are plenty of cars already parked near the vicinity).

You can find out that you are fairly close to the summer capital of the Philippines at this location.Lions Head is better to be visited on Normal Days and you should have your own car or service

Lion Head was somewhat creepy on the its left side when facing it at night. I think they need to put on lights around the statue to look more formal and not intimidating.

Just passed by this spot en route going home from Baguio. Novelty items and trinkets sold by various hawkers. There’s a public toilet available. Native Igorots are also available for souvenir photos. You might want to don a traditional costume and sit with them for a selfie. Kinda crowded on a Sunday afternoon. This will always remain a famous landmark for Baguio visitors.

This is always a worthy stop-over. Everyone should pay homage to this post-modern structure for a bathroom break or a taste of that home-made strawberry ice-cream or to just take a snap of the big lion which i do all the time.

Iconic place for those who would want to have proof they have gone to Baguio. The place offers scenic parking space and lots of souvenir items. Nothing much to do here but it is a must to take pictures if you pass through Kennon Road.

One of iconic tourist spots of Baguio that you shouldnt miss.During pandemic, it is recommended to strike a deal with your taxi driver to go to and fro here, coz the passing public vehicles are limited.It is not crowded during pandemic compared to before.

One of the most iconic landmark of Baguio is the Lions Head. Best to visit on your way up to Baguio by driving through the scenic Kennon Road.

This is a marker thst tells you that you are now entering baguio city. Enjoy take some pictures and have some fun. Just make sure to clean up your mess once you start again. Better yet just tale many pictures as you can. Make as many momories as you can. And leave nothing but foot print no trash.

This is one of the landmarks that you will know you are near Baguio City. Located in Camp 6, this landmark signifies the presence of the Lion’s Club International in the City. This can be reached (when you’re coming from Baguiowithin 30 minutes. There are also several pasalubong / souvenir stalls in its vicinity.

Kenon road is "somewhat" always closed but if you asked nicely, youd be able to go. Lion is neat and newly painted. There were few people and almost had the place for ourselves. Less tourists while theres the nCoV scare. A viewing deck is being constructed nearby. I suggest coming here during summer. Theres a need to deal with a huge crowd though.

Typical statue in honor of the lions club family. But the view makes it astonishing. Too bad, mining on baguio caused the landslide that could be seen on this area.

Well the place is very beautiful, I fact the journey down the hill from top of the mountain until this point is beautiful. Due to landslide ahead we could not go beyond this point. Very clean and very good people around, try to click pictures in Baguio traditional dress just next to the lions head

It makes me happy I finally have pictures taken from here. Although there was a paint signage that blocks the nice view in the left side of the Lions Head, so far it was nice.

Lions Head is a popular tourist destination along Kennon Road going to Baguio. I rated 3 stars because I am of the opinion that it has lost somehow the prestige because of the too many tourist footprints. Nevertheless, it is still one of the tourist spots in Baguio, Benguet Province.

Crowded and noisy but awesome to visit for souvenirs. Just a warning though you should be here early because of the traffic parked vehicles are causing and oh this place is a tourist trap, just take a photo of the big Lions Head and head on your way.

Another well-known landmark associated with Baguio is the Lions Head. It is situated in the slopes of Kennon Road. This is one spot thats also popular with tourists so weve decided to head on to Manila early in the morning to avoid the crowd eager to take selfies/groufies with this famed structure. Parking could be an issue. Just an observation, the head didnt look as nice as it was in the old days. It changed a lot through the years, funnylooking lion esp. with its color. So artificial.
