Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What’s the most overrated tourist destination?

I would say Baguio but that's mainly because I'm not a tourist here.

Same sentiments, but then again we are residents. The weather is nice, other than that, there's really not much.

you will enjoy it if you come during non holiday weekdays

Baguio. Man, that city was crowded as fuck, terrible traffic situations. My first and (maybe) last visit was with my family back in 2012.

It's even worse now during holidays, weekends, and special events like festivals. It's much better to visit during weekdays.

Not exactly "tourist" in the strictest sense but I still hear people treating Gilmore as the go-to place for PCs when that hasn't been the case since 2005, and even moreso with the advent of online shopping and mom-and-pop stores.
