Lion's Head

The Lions Head is a statue along Kennon Road, a major highway in Luzon, Philippines, that leads to the city of Baguio. Located in Camp 6, the Lion's Head measures 12 m in height. It was conceptualized by the Lions Club members of Baguio, during the term of Luis Lardizabal as mayor of Baguio from 1969 to 1970 and as the club's president, to become the club's symbol or imprint in the area. Prior to the artistic sculpting, the limestone was prepared by a group of engineers and miners, then the "actual artistic carving of the façade" was rendered by Anselmo Bayang Day-ag, an Ifugao artist/sculptor from the Cordillera Administrative Region.
