Mount Costa

Tucked in Upper Lamtang, Puguis, La Trinidad, Benguet, Mount Costa has received hundreds of visitors from all over the world since its opening on February 4, 2017. If you love strolling in Burnham Park, you’ll definitely love this serene place.

Just imagine all the greeneries you get to enjoy this place. And the best part? There are parts where a literal outdoor living room is installed in the gardens. Here, you’ll get the best views of the area. And just like any living room, there’s a center table, a long couch, and two smaller couches.

What to See and Do

Mirror Garden

Probably, the highlight of the place is the mirror garden. Featuring a lot of mirrors, you are sure to have lots of fun here.

Adult and Children’s Garden Space

Good thing when we went here, there were only a few visitors so nobody saw me trying on the swings and the slides. I was like a kid in a candy store. Now, I can attest that the installed playground is pretty sturdy. Hehe.

Outdoor Musical Garden

Lalalalalalalala…

If you like to make noise, there’s the music garden where you can play with installed instruments. It’s pretty fun.

Dining Area

Yup. There’s a dining area inside Mount Costa. You can buy some snacks and rice meals, too.

In the dining area, what I love most about this are the living room styled area.
