Baguio Cemetery (also known as the Baguio Public Cemetery[2]) is a 94,800-square-meter (23.4-acre) cemetery[1] in the city of Baguio, Philippines, on top of a hill along Naguilian Road.

Established in the 1950s, the cemetery was overcrowded by 2011.[1] Informal settlers, some working in the cemetery as tomb cleaners and painters, have settled in land allotted to the cemetery by the Baguio city government.[2]
